5.0 out of 5 stars AN EXCELLENT BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO KWANZAA FOR YOUNG READERS, December 20, 2010
This review is from: Kwanzaa: A Family Affair (An Avon Camelot Book) (Paperback)
Mildred Pitts Waller writes in the introduction to this 1995 book, "For those African-American families who find joy in letting their children know where they have come from, so that they can know where they are at the moment and where they are going."

She states that the information in the book is derived from Dr. Maulana Karenga's (founder of Kwanzaa) book, Kwanzaa: origin, concepts, practice.

The book has chapters such as, "What is Kwanzaa?"; "Kwanzaa Principles, Symbols, and Rituals"; "Making Symbols, Gifts, and Foods for Kwanzaa" (which includes some recipies); and also has a Swahili Glossary and Pronunciation Key, as well as some "Suggested Reading."

This book contains a wealth of information in a very short (94 pages) package.
