(4) K-3 Holidays & Heroes series. Illustrated by Thomas Sperling. This series highlights three U.S. holidays, providing information about their origins and reasons for continued celebration. Abbreviated biographies of Columbus (Columbus) and Washington and Lincoln (Presidents') are included; Veterans succinctly describes the five branches of the U.S. military and explains how Armistice Day was enlarged in 1954 to "honor all veterans, living or dead." Photographs and drawings accompany the lackluster texts. Review covers these Holidays & Heroes titles: Let's Celebrate Columbus Day, Let's Celebrate Presidents' Day, and Let's Celebrate Veterans Day.
Reviewer: Luther B. Clegg
