St. Patrick's Day: Parades, Shamrocks, and Leprechauns (Finding Out About Holidays) (Library Binding)

~ (Author)

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 2-4-The story of St. Patrick is told, with legend and fact delineated. The significance of the color green is explained, as is that of shamrocks, four-leaf clovers, and pots of gold. Parades, festivals, athletic events, and special foods are all discussed. The text is clear and engaging, and the attractive color photos, reproductions, and drawings add interest and detail. The simple craft project seems a bit young for the audience. Gail Gibbons's St. Patrick's Day (Holiday, 1994) is for younger children. Landau's book is a more-than-satisfactory addition to holiday collections.
