This blog was developed as a resource for teachers who are looking to incorporate high quality and award winning trade books into their social studies curriculum.

The Sound of Kwanzaa
The Sound of Kwanzaa
Written By: Dimitra Tokunbo
Illustrated By: Lisa Cohen
"Here is a perfect book for reading aloud during the upcoming holiday season. THE SOUND OF KWANZAA is a sort of call back and answer pattern lets readers know about the facts behind the holiday. Why the candles of different colors? What does Kwanzaa signify? Bold illustrations and text combine to convey the excitement and joy of the celebration."
