Virtual Reading: Story Time – Freedom Soup by Tami Charles
June 11, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Celebrate Carribean Heritage Month with a virtual reading on Facebook of Freedom Soup with author Tami Charles. Join the celebration in the kitchen as a family makes their traditional New Year’s soup — and shares the story of how Haitian independence came to be. This year, Ti Gran is teaching Belle how to make the soup — Freedom Soup — just like she was taught when she was a little girl. Together, they dance and clap as they prepare the holiday feast, and Ti Gran tells Belle about the history of the soup, the history of Belle’s family, and the history of Haiti, where Belle’s family is from. Purchase the book in advance.
