Columbus Day

(4) K-3 Buddy Books: Holidays series. Following a short description of the featured holiday, Murray discusses its origin, its evolution, and the way it is celebrated today. The writing is simple and straightforward, but bolded key words are not always defined in the text, leading to disruptive detours to the glossary. Photos appear throughout the generally clean layouts. Columbus and King contain timelines. Ind. Review includes these Buddy Books: Holidays titles: Chinese New Year, Cinco de Mayo, Columbus Day, Independence Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, and Presidents' Day.
