'Twas the Night Before Juneteenth - Hardcover

The Night Before Juneteenth is a vibrant, unforgettable parody of the holiday classic The Night Before Christmas, but this time, freedom is coming down the tracks.

Told in joyous, rhyming verse, this reimagined tale swaps Santa's sleigh for the Freedom Train and St. Nick for none other than Harriet Tubman herself, lamp in hand, cape billowing, and a wink as warm as summer air. As a modern Black family prepares for Juneteenth, they're visited by heroes and legends whose names we should all know. It's magical. It's moving. It's history wrapped in rhythm, heart, and humor.

Featuring breathtaking, painterly illustrations that leap off the page, every scene radiates the pride and beauty of Black joy. This hardcover edition is a true keepsake.

Perfect for families, classrooms, and anyone seeking to honor Juneteenth with love and laughter, The Night Before Juneteenth is not just a parody, t's a celebration. One you'll return to, year after year.
