Celebrate the power of freedom in this introduction to Juneteenth for ages 6 to 9.

The History of Juneteenth is more than just a story--it's a vivid introduction to one of the most important moments in American history. Designed for young readers ages 6 to 9, this book brings the journey to freedom to life with warmth, honesty, and hope.

Written by historian Arlisha Norwood, PhD, this children's nonfiction book explains the events of June 19, 1865--when enslaved people in Texas finally learned they were free--and how that powerful moment continues to shape the world we live in. Through clear storytelling and rich illustrations, young readers learn not just what happened, but why it matters.

Why kids and educators choose this Juneteenth book:

  • Honest and uplifting storytelling: Helps children understand the impact of slavery and emancipation with language that's truthful but never overwhelming.
  • Designed for developing minds: Breaks down key concepts into easy-to-follow sections with bold visuals and a helpful timeline.
  • Interactive learning: Includes a quiz and thought-provoking questions to reinforce knowledge and spark reflection.

Perfect for introducing kids to African American history, this book is ideal for Juneteenth, Black History Month, classroom libraries, or any family wanting to raise informed and compassionate young readers.
