What is Juneteenth? When their grandmother sits down at the kitchen table to answer that question, three young siblings (Tonia, Monty, and Jazmine) discover the story of America's newest national holiday.

This Young Learners Special Edition combines a read-aloud picture book story with twenty original line-art illustrations ready for crayons, colored pencils, or markers. Children ages 4 through 7 follow Grandma's gentle telling of June 19, 1865, the day the news of freedom finally reached Galveston, Texas. They meet the families who walked into a brand-new day, learn about the Juneteenth flag and what its colors mean, and join in modern celebrations of red drinks, family cookouts, drumming, dancing, and parades.

Every page invites participation. Did You Know? facts share age-appropriate history. Try This activities turn coloring into conversation. New Word boxes introduce vocabulary like freedom, tradition, and remember. The book closes with a child-friendly glossary, a Juneteenth crossword puzzle with answer key, and a Color Your Own Juneteenth Flag activity page complete with a write-your-own-wish ribbon banner.

This book gives families, classrooms, and libraries a meaningful, hands-on way to mark the holiday. Read it aloud at bedtime. Use it in pre-K, kindergarten, and first-grade classrooms.
