School Library Journal
Gr 2-4Three series entries that introduce the history of their respective holidays and how they are celebrated.

The open, spacious format makes the books accessible, and the full-color and black-and-white photos lend interest. However, some of them are more filler than substance, and the captions add little or no information. Additional purchases where needed.Pamela K. Bomboy, Chesterfield County Public Schools, VA
