A Woman hero that young girls can aspire to be.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Young Rosa Parks: Civil Rights Heroine (First-Start Biographies) (Paperback)
This big book biography is a great way to introduce the life of Rosa Parks to emergent readers. The book begins with the showcasing of Rosa's humble beginnings as a small child and concludes with the epic struggle of the Montgomery Bus Boycott. In spite of the controversial issues of race relations between white and black people, neither group is portrayed in a negative manner. Although the graphic showing of houses being burn to the ground by the KKK will and may provoke questions by young readers who in all likelyhood are beginning to understand the historical conflicts of America. Because of its big size, and this book is "immense," no listener who is within 20 feet away will say that he or she cannot see the pictures. Notwithstanding, the pictures could have been more colorful.
