A joyful picturebook of a big brother weaving a Kente cloth for the new baby in his family, with lyrical text and textured artwork that sings.

Kente is more than a cloth, it is a symbol of love. And the big brother in this story loves new baby Jojo so very much! Together, the family travels to pick out a special Kente for Jojo-it must be perfect. With some inspiration from a passing rainbow and a little help from a skilled weaver, they do just that!

Come along as author Bernard Mensah shares the legend of how Kente came to be, and discover the many beautiful patterns of traditional Kente through Elizabeth Zunon's warm and textured art! This unjacketed hardcover also includes a textured spine to evoke woven fabric.
