Jonkonnu

By Amy Littlesugar

Cilla doesn't know much about Yankee painter Winslow Homer, who is staying at her mama's inn in Virginia. So one day she follows him and she's surprised to discover that Mr. Homer has posed freed slaves in colorful costumes while he paints a tribute to Jonkonnu, the African-American holiday that celebrates freedom from slavery.
