(4) K-3 Illustrated by Linda Bleck. Spring solstice is the impetus for rites and ceremonies all over the world, and here Pfeffer describes both ancient and contemporary celebrations. The folk-art-style illustrations show cheery look-alike people in idealized settings. An illustration of Earth's position and a later verbal description for each change of season are useful. Crafts and recipes are appended. Reading list, websites.
