If anyone would like to write me off list about this, Kathryn (14)
was asking if there's any easy way to learn about Wicca. Probably her
idea of easy is books with lots of pictures or text broken up into
easily digested chunks, DVDs, audio books. Low on her list would be
books with dense text.

I asked her what aspect of it she was interested in and she replied:

I know you suggested off list, but my computer isn't being very
cooperative today. There are many different "shades" to wicca and to
all the other neo-pagan practices. For a decent overview that is easy
to understand, I would suggest "Circle Round" by Starhawk. It is
actually written for parents with ideas, activities, stories to share
with their children. It covers the basic idea of altars, magick,
sexuality, rites of passage, festivals, those kinds of things.

I have been trying to expand my knowledge in this area too. I have some
websites that having information and book titles and authors, which I borrow
from the library and check out when I visit the bookstores.

Here are some of the sites I've visited recently.
