Gr 2-4-These books give engaging overviews of the history and customs associated with these celebrations. The colorful layout, containing sidebars and full-color photographs and illustrations, will attract children's attention and hold their interest, whether for reports or general reading. However, Constitution Day may exaggerate the popularity of this American holiday that was established in 2004. It's a bit of a stretch to say: "Constitution Day]is celebrated throughout the United States by all American citizens]. Families celebrate the day at home]." Cinco de Mayo includes a recipe and instructions for making a piñata. These offerings cover many of the same celebrations, but in more depth than the popular "Rookie Read-about Holidays" series (Children's Press). Overall, informative and worthwhile purchases.Melinda Piehler, Sawgrass Elementary School, Sunrise, FLCopyright 2009 School Library Journal, LLC Used with permission.
