I am Martin Luther King, Jr. (Ordinary People Change the World)

by Christopher Eliopoulous and Brad Meltzer

Christopher Eliopoulos (Illustrator)

Even as a child, Martin Luther King, Jr. was shocked by the terrible and unfair way African-American people were treated. When he grew up, he decided to do something about it-peacefully, with powerful words. He helped gather people together for nonviolent protests and marches, and he always spoke up about loving other human beings and doing what's right. He spoke about the dream of a kinder future, and bravely led the way toward racial equality in America. This lively, New York Times Bestselling biography series inspires kids to dream big, one great role model at a time. You'll want to collect each book.

So impressed with this book. A great starting point to learn about Martin Luther King Jr and begin discussion with younger children about how everyone should be treated.
