The illustrations are beautiful, and the poem fits the meter of "The Night Before Christmas" consistently without feeling forced. This is a nice introduction to the history of Juneteenth and the end of the slavery.

I thought Barksdale’s illustrations were beautiful and they definitely captivated my six year old.
I liked Armand’s framing and enjoyed the “‘twas the night before..” borrowed from Clement Moore’s Christmas poem.
My six yer old got tripped up by the words proclamation and emancipation but we got through it.
