An Amish Wedding

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Pamela Patrick. Anna's little sister describes the preparations for and celebration of Anna's wedding day. The narrator mentions a few customs whose significance is not fully clear to the reader, such as the bride stepping over a broom and wearing a black cap for the wedding, but overall the picture book offers an interesting look at a traditional Amish ceremony. The artwork is a bit uneven: some characters look almost photorealistic, while other figures are rather sketchy.
Reviewer: Anne St. John
