    Summary: 
    "Kwanzaa is a seven-day festival that begins on December 26 and is celebrated until January 1 each year. It celebrates African American culture as well as family and community. During this time, families gather to eat delicious foods, exchange gifts, and honor their heritage and traditions. Using age-appropriate language, this book explores Kwanzaa's roots and the social significance of its founding. Colorful images allow readers to visualize the celebration and make connections with the text. Each day of the holiday focuses on one of seven principles that readers will be able to appreciate in their own life even if their family doesn't celebrate Kwanzaa"--
