| |  | | | In Brief This book discusses the celebration of Kwanzaa, presenting recipes, crafts, and ideas for gifts. "The first chapter traces the story of the Africanpeople from earliest times up through the 1960s and the creation of the holiday. . . . The second chapter takes each of the principles and identifies Africans and African Americans whose lives exemplify them. For example, Martin Luther King's life symbolizes Umojo (unity). {Bibliography. Glossary.} Grades three to six." (SLJ)
| | | | From The Publisher Popular author and illustrator Dolores Johnson has fashioned an attractive and easy-to-follow guide to celebrating Kwanzaa, a holiday created in 1966 which celebrates the African American people, their heritage, and culture.
Johnson explains what Kwanzaa is, how it came to be, and details its principles and symbols. She includes an extensive craft and recipe section with instructions and diagrams for making everything from the seven symbols, to gifts for family and friends, to a scrumptious meal for the Kwanzaa Karamu. She invites young readers to actively participate in the festivities, and offers guidance and suggestions on how they and their families might create their own special Kwanzaa celebration.
A book that children and parents will reach for year after year.
