We only found two books about Labor Day at the first grade reading level for children to practice with. There are plenty of other books to share with them though, and you might want to look at our Cesar Chavez book list, as his life story puts a human face on the efforts of some labor union workers. Books at the 2nd Grade reading level can be found here.
