Independence Day

(4) K-3 First Step Nonfiction: American Holidays series. With a simple text and large color photos, each small-size book in this series gives some very basic history about a U.S. holiday. While the writing is fairly dry, these books offer easy-to-read introductions for young readers. Oddly, photos of modern-day presidents in Presidents' Day are from the 1980s and 90s, giving the book a dated feel. A timeline and a page of additional facts are included. Glos., ind. [First Step Nonfiction covers these titles: Earth Day, Independence Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Memorial Day, and Presidents' Day.]
