A holiday’s history and traditions

Emily Raij’s nonfiction book introduces Independence Day through two connected strands: the history of the Declaration of Independence and the ways the holiday is celebrated today. It notes the adoption of the Declaration on July 4, 1776, and describes familiar traditions such as parades, fireworks, and festivals. The combination gives young readers a straightforward entry point to both the holiday’s historical background and its place in contemporary American life.
