Sibley The Shortest Day Celebrating the Winter Solstice by Wendy Pfeffer

     Winter begins on or about December 21.This book explains what the winter solstice is and how it has been celebrated by various cultures throughout history.  Some celebrate by exchanging gifts and decorating  their houses with evergreens. People believed  that the evergreens would bring strength to their families. Also, people have welcomed the winter solstice because it's a new beginning.~ Mary Jo Fox
