K-3First Step Nonfiction: American Holidays series.
These books briefly introduce readers to the Juneteenth and Constitution Day holidays. Using one choppy but accessible sentence per page, the volumes provide very bare-bones information: "Juneteenth began many years ago. / America was fighting about slaves"; "Many Americans met to write the Constitution." Stock photographs or archival illustrations fill each compact page. Additional facts are appended. Timeline. Glos., ind. Review covers these First Step Nonfiction: American Holidays titles: Constitution Day and Juneteenth.
