This entry into the charming Little People, BIG DREAMS series takes a look the life of Martin Luther King Jr. At a young age, King quickly learned there were differences in the world. He was not allowed in his friend's home because of the colour of his skin. They had different buses, and went to different schools. Martin took note, and polished his speaking skills. He became a Reverend, and spoke often to his congregation about equality, and making a stand for what's right. When Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat in a bus to a white passenger and was arrested for it, King rallied the citizens, successfully carrying out a strike against bus riding until the laws were changed. This was a spark to the major civil rights movement leading to King's famous 'I have a dream' speech. Above all, King supported non-violent protests, inspired by Mahatma Gandhi, to get the message across. The end of the book contains a more detailed look at King's life, using language suited for much older readers. Inspirational and educational both, this entire series is great! I read this with my cubs. We love this series! Highly recommended! ***Many thanks to the Netgalley & Quarto Publishing for providing an egalley in exchange for a fair and honest review. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

This short, sensitive mini biography is perfect for any age but is geared for the very young. The language is perfect for ESL also. Very well done!
The illustrations are mostly simple and forthright with brilliant colors thanks to illustrator Mai Ly Degnan.
