Description

Cornrows: A story about the rich heritage and tradition behind this iconic hairstyle. Camille Yarbrough's powerful tale weaves together family affection, pride, and cultural identity.

The gentle fingers of Mama and Great-Grammaw weave the design, as they braid their children's hair into striking cornrow patterns inspired by Africa. Beautifully illustrated by Carole Byard, this story dignifies and respects the tradition.
