Encyclopedia Britannica - Middle School Edition

Britannica is a fantastic resource. This link on Wicca is set for "Level 3," as is this one on Neopaganism meaning it has the most detail. You can also check level 2 or 1 for a quicker, but less thorough, read. Remember that Britannica will make a citation for you. Just click the checkbox at the top right of the page.
