The Shortest Day: Celebrating the Winter Solstice Review: Outstanding tool to teach science in simple terms, emphasizing the changing of the seasons. - If you are interested in your elementary age child learning about science, buy this book. The author combined the history of why it was important to know when the longest day of the year is, with the science that explains the four seasons. With pertinent illustrations it shows the position of the sun relative to the Earth during the year. Further drawn pictures show the buildings created by ancient peoples around the world, that pinpointed the longest day. Finally the last few pages have simple experiments that can be performed by the child with the parent's help using only a ruler. Any teacher of children aged 7 to 13 years old should use this book in the classroom as part of a STEM curriculum. Review: Educational Winter Solstice Book - This book is very educational, explaining what winter solstice is and different traditions celebrating it from around the world. I would, however, recommend it for children 6yo+ as my younger children do not understand quite a bit of it. Still a great book and will be reading it for many years! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,556,575 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #349 in Children's Weather Books (Books) #592 in Children's Environment & Ecology Books (Books) #1,068 in Children's Earth Sciences Books (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (814) | | Dimensions | 9.38 x 0.38 x 10.38 inches | | Edition | Complete Numbers Starting with 1, 1st Ed | | Grade level | 1 - 4 | | ISBN-10 | 0525469680 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0525469681 | | Item Weight | 14.4 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 40 pages | | Publication date | September 22, 2003 | | Publisher | Dutton Books for Young Readers | | Reading age | 3 - 7 years, from customers | ## Images ![The Shortest Day: Celebrating the Winter Solstice - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91+sCezcopL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding tool to teach science in simple terms, emphasizing the changing of the seasons. *by E***N on October 18, 2025* If you are interested in your elementary age child learning about science, buy this book.
