Twelve Dinging Doorbells
Tameka Fryer Brown, illustrated by Ebony Glenn
Told as a cumulative holiday carol, this book gathers aunties, uncles, cousins, grandparents, neighbors, and other family members for celebrations. They come together to eat, sing, and celebrate life. The story includes food, love, and Black joy, and its family occasions encompass holidays such as Thanksgiving and Christmas, as well as graduations and other shared gatherings. As doorbells ring, the cumulative structure builds the sense of relatives and neighbors arriving.
