This review is from: The Story of Kwanzaa (Trophy Picture Books) (Paperback)
We think teaching our children about cultural diversity is a must so we bought this book and it is Wonderful . It has little how tos and reciepies that were great for us as a family becouse we had no idea how to help her celebrate this holiday . Now on the first night of Kwanzaa we have a traditional dinner and the kids make cow tail switches to help bring the story to life

The Story of Kwanzaa,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Story of Kwanzaa (Trophy Picture Books) (Paperback)
The books begins by providing a very general history of Africa. However, some of the claims that are made I do not think are true, such as the Brer Rabbits stories were about slaves and their slave owners. Having read a book of Brer Rabbits tales, I think that the slave that Joel Chandler Harris interviewed for the Brer Rabbit books was retelling stories that originated from Africa. But, I like the illustrations in the book, each one of them could be a story by itself. Moreover, the real value of this piece of the literature is the last two-thirds of the book, where the seven days of Kwanzaa are explained and reference materials for Kwanzaa is given.
