In one week [6/19], the nation will celebrate JUNETEENTH, the oldest nationally/internationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. One way we can observe the holiday is to read books to children that teach the history of why & how we celebrate the African American Emancipation Day. Here are just a few children’s books that can help you honor the important day with your students & children.
