A Notable Children's Trade Book in the Field of Social Studies
Every design has a name and means something in the powerful past and present richness of the Black tradition. Mama's and Great-Grammaw's gentle fingers weave the design, and their lulling voices weave the tale, as they braid their children's hair into the striking cornrow patterns of Africa.

Easy to digest book for kids
Format: Hardcover
This is a great book for our kids who want to know more. They can read it by themselves if they're in 4th or 5th grade or read it with them and make it a real learning experience. Lots of things to talk about and discuss. Clear and concise facts that you'll hear back from your reader!
