A Kwanzaa Holiday Cookbook

During Kwanzaa, African Americans celebrate both their heritage in Africa and their lives in America. In this book, students learn how Kwanzaa began in the 1960’s, the meaning of Kwanzaa’s seven symbols, and other facts about this important holiday. As part of the lesson, students make Kwanzaa treats such as benne cakes and Kwanzaa cornbread. The recipes are presented with clear, step-by-step instructions that make it easy for kids to bring history to life.
