  | Full Text Reviews: Booklist - 12/01/2015 Each volume in the excellent Holidays & Heroes series focuses on a particular American holiday and explains why it is celebrated, who is associated with the holiday, and what form the celebration takes. Let’s Celebrate Constitution Day introduces a holiday some may not know about. September 17, the day the Constitution was ratified has been the designated a federal holiday since 2004 The book does a fine job of explaining the history of the Constitution, the discussion around it, and the men who struggled to see it come to fruition. The series combines crisp, informative texts with attractive full-color illustrations and a pleasing design. Those looking for activities about the holidays are directed to a designated website. Librarians and teachers will find this series useful in many ways. - Copyright 2015 Booklist. Loading...
