Today is the first day of Kwanzaa. If you are looking for a good
nonfiction Kwanzaa children's book for younger kids, I recommend
Celebrate Kwanzaa. Although Celebrate Kwanzaa is a nonfiction
book, it is designed in picture book format and illustrated with
a great many color photographs. As the author points out,
"Although Kwanzaa is grounded in black culture, the holiday's
seven principles represent universal values that anyone can
relate to." Whether you celebrate Kwanzaa or just want your
children to learn about about it, I recommend Celebrate Kwanzaa.
