THE ANCIENT CELTIC FESTIVALS: And How We Celebrate Them Today by Clare Walker Leslie and Frank E. Gerace
(Recommended Age Range: 8 to 12)

Although this is an illustrated children’s book, it is substantial enough to serve as a basic reference for adults too. It provides clear explanations of the four key festivals that divided theCeltic year into quarters: Imbolc (Feb 1), Beltane (May 1), Lughnasa (August 1), and Samhain (November 1). In addition to its colorful illustrations and numerous full pages of text, this book includes a helpful glossary, a bibliography, and an index.
