Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: b

Answer to Question 2

The responses should lean more toward using the NAEYC anti-bias guidelines. That is, holiday themed books should not be used in a way that favors a specific religion, ethnicity, or culture. The preferred approach is to include parents, families and the community from the very start to develop the types of celebrations, focusing on more universal themes such as light, freedom, and sharing. These values tend to be admired across nearly all cultures, and comprise important ideas for children to strive toward.
