3.5 🌟 I struggled with the pronunciation of the words in my head, but that’s no one’s fault but my own. A great introduction with thorough description of the holiday traditions. A very good introduction to the holiday.

This book describes the holiday tradition of Kwanzaa. Students can read about other cultures and compare and contrast them to their own holiday traditions.
