K-3Finding Out about Holidays series.
Each book in this series introduces a particular holiday. A choppy text, sidebars with related information, and stock color photographs give some history about the holiday's origins and contemporary traditions, such as the practice of giving out paper poppies on Veterans Day. A list of websites and a craft idea (a Mardi Gras mask, for example) are appended. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these Finding Out about Holidays titles: Earth Day: Keeping Our Planet Clean, Mardi Gras: Parades, Costumes, and Parties, Valentine's Day: Candy, Love, and Hearts, Veteran's Day: Remembering Our War Heroes. ]
