Looking for an inspiring and empowering way to teach children about Black history? If yes, then this parent-and teacher-approved book is for you!
The minds of children are like sponges. They see, hear, and experience everything society has to offer. Because of this, we tend to focus on what divides us rather than what brings us together. Where does Black history fit in? Black history focuses on the important roles African Americans played and continue to play in the fabric of American society. By educating children about African Americans' triumphs, struggles, and contributions to education, science, art, law, medicine, and so forth, we help eliminate racism, facilitate student and parent education and challenge narrow-minded beliefs. Yarrie's ABCs of Black History takes you to the classroom where seven-year-old Yarrie is presenting a project on important Black figures from A to Z . But she has a problem. Her project isn't finished. She is still missing a historical figure for the twenty-fifth letter: Y. With the help and inspiration from her classmates, Yarrie comes up with a creative idea to complete her classroom project. Yarrie's story encourages children to value one another, be brave enough to make a difference, and seek out the beauty within their own culture and history.
In Yarrie's ABCs of Black History, we learn about inspirational Black figures from history, ranging from NASA Mathematician Dorothy Vaughan to legendary musician Nat King Cole. This educational yet creative book provides children from all backgrounds with a fun and intriguing way to learn about Black history.
This book encourages educational and meaningful conversations, laying a solid foundation for important topics such as:
- American history is Black history. Black History is American History
- Identity, Representation, and Diversity
- Celebrating the differences and similarities
- Embracing Black Achievement in America
- The Value of Learning About Other Cultures
Furthermore, this book will help children
- have fun while learning
- recognize the beauty in their own culture and race
- recognize that their dreams, goals, and aspirations should be pursued
- know their worth and values, and
- develop healthy relationships with children who don't look like them
Bonus Activity: This book includes a fill-in-the-blank activity that documents the courage your child has to dream big and make history!
This book is a must-read for all young children of all ages!
