We are a secular family but I want to teach my son about the many traditions that enliven the year. While I wouldn't presume to tell anyone whether or not a book feels friendly enough for their personal religious beliefs, I did not see the Christian bias a previous reviewer critiqued. That review states that the book transitions from a discussion of the ancient Saxons' Eostre to a page about "the real Easter" but this is not factually accurate. What the book actually says is this: "At the same time that Pagans celebrated their goddess of Springtime, Eostre, Christians observed Jesus' new beginning, when they believe he was raised from the dead. As more people became Christians, the name of their celebration changed from Eostre to Easter." Throughout the discussion of Easter, it is depicted as the holiday/celebration celebrated by one group of people (Christians); it states what "they" (Christians) believe and what they (Christians) call their holiday. It is historically accurate, if unfortunate, that many pagan celebrations and traditions were pulled into Christian traditions as that religion grew in the West (whether by accident or calculation, or both). I think this book does a good job of presenting both the pagan celebration and the Christian holiday and giving equal value to both -- this is in fact one of the things I appreciate most about this series of books. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect! *by K***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2020* This book is delightful! I was happy to find a Spring Equinox book that discussed many traditions around the world without fear of using the word "Pagan"! As a homeshcooling pagan family, this met all of our needs and helps kids learn about and understand where Easter traditions come from. The images are bright and playful, and keeps my son's attention as he contemplates the meaning of Ostara celebrations. I love it. He loves it. It's Perfect! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Secular celebrations of the seasons *by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2019* I've been reading all four of these books to my daughters and to their classes during school gardening. They're a little above their first-grade reading level and attention spans, but they enjoy these colorful books broken up into two or three parts. They give a good explanation of the astronomical reasons for the seasons and how people around the world celebrate them, which has sparked some interesting conversations about the customs observed by the kids in the class. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/25100464-a-new-beginning-celebrating-the-spring-equinox-paperback-january-1](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/25100464-a-new-beginning-celebrating-the-spring-equinox-paperback-january-1) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-07-29*
