When their father dies, he leaves an unusual will: by sundown, the brothers must make gold out of seven spools of thread or they will be turned out as beggars. Publisher’s synopsis: In an African village live seven brothers who make life miserable with their constant fighting. Publisher: Albert Whitman & Company (September 1, 2000) Brief explanations of the seven principles of Kwanzaa can be found at the back of the book, along with a glossary of words used during this season.Īdd this book to your collection: My First Kwanza Bookīy Angela Shelf Medearis (Author), Daniel Minter (Illustrator) Note: Told through the story of a boy, this book offers a great introduction to Kwanzaa and its festivities. Grandma brings special things to eat, Grandpa lights the candles, and everyone in the family celebrates their heritage. Publisher’s synopsis: During the last week of December, Kwanzaa is a time to dress up in African clothes and gather together with relatives from all over the country. Publisher: Scholastic Paperbacks Reprint edition (October 1, 1999) There appears to be quite slim pickings when it comes to children’s books that relate to Kwanzaa-did you hear that children’s book authors? However, there are definitely enough to satisfy the needs of anyone looking to teach the history, meaning, and/or spirit of Kwanzaa.īy Deborah Chocolate (Author), Cal Massey (Illustrator) By Bianca Schulze, The Children’s Book Review
