"This book is great for black people, but it's even better for everyone. The author recognizes the importance that knowledge of self can inspire people to stand proud."

This is a wonderful book showcasing the vibrant culture and customs found in AFRICAN AND CARIBBEAN CELEBRATIONS. History and traditions, such as well-known Kwanzaa, and less-than-well-known, Crop Over, and many other key events in the festival calendar, are all beautifully illustrated and brought to life.

Rich with personal anecdotes, folk stories, songs, games, recipes, crafts and activities for the whole family to learn, and participate in. 

Historian and author, Gail Johnson wishes to empower through words and knowledge. She has given us a "cultural feast and journey with this book...that everyone should take."
