Summary: Just the Thing for Planning a Family Vacation!
Review: This book has an interesting overview of various festivals held throughout the US, and fun ideas for the next family vacation. Accommodation information is up to you to find out, and it is not arranged by state. It's a fun guide book to some of the festivals in the US, just the thing if you can't decide where to vacation with family, and want to try something different.

I recommend the book. The author gives you contact information and addresses for the various farms, factories and chambers of commerce, but she does not give information on where to stay in the area - that's up to you. Some of these towns are quite small, and only during their festivals do they have crowds of people. Hotels may not be available in some of these places, and she doesn't mention the nearest larger town that might. However, if you're computer savvy, then your fingers can do the tapping and find accommodations nearby, or you can do it the "old-fashioned" way and use a road atlas!
