Description : The festival traditions of the African and Caribbean world are rich and varied, and a largely untapped community resource. Have fun exploring it for yourself!
If you want to explore Carnival and the music of a steel band, or to understand why a Jamaican family throws a party after a family member has died, then this book is for you. The history and customs of Kwanzaa, Carnival, Crop Over and other key events in the festival calendar are all beautifully illustrated and brought to life with stories, songs, games, recipes, crafts and activities. Try a taste of Blue Drawers, play Oware and make a Jonkonnu mask!
