Li'l Rabbit's Kwanzaa

Ages 4 to 8, Grades P to 2

A reassuring and charming book about Kwanzaa, perfect for any reader who has ever felt too “little” to participate in a family celebration from two award-winning Black creators: Donna Washington and Shane Evans. Now available in paperback.

Li’l Rabbit is not having a very good Kwanzaa. Granna Rabbit is sick, and so his family won’t celebrate his favorite part of Kwanzaa this year: a big feast called Karamu. But Li’l Rabbit knows how to help Granna have her own Karamu—he’ll find her a special treat! But finding something special is easier said than done. Is Li’l Rabbit too little to help Granna Rabbit celebrate Kwanzaa? Maybe he just needs a little help from his family and friends.
