Lyn loved It!, February 10, 2006
This review is from: The Bus Ride that Changed History: The Story of Rosa Parks (Hardcover)
I had the privilege of hearing this book at no other than my job's Holiday Office Party! Rosa Parks had just passed away a few months before and some members of my staff wanted to pay tribute and homage to her legacy, so they brought this book to share with everyone.
This book is a great read aloud book, because it repeats the passage, "Which was overtured because one woman was brave", which gives your audience a chance to interact and engage the reader. (Similar to a call and response activity). Everyone in my office loved the presentation of my colleagues. Honestly, that one presentation still stands out in my mind.
I highly encourgage parents to buy this book for their children and grandchildren; I enourage teachers to have this book in their class for their students; I encourage storytellers to have this book alongside some of their other favorites to read; and lastly, I encourage workers to share this book with their colleagues at their next party gathering. If it worked in a federal government office it will work anywhere:-)
