I love how this story takes children through what social justice is through the fight for equal rights, and it's done in alphabetical order with most of our alphabet included. Every initiative I can think of is represented. ( ) Rob Sanders stresses the importance of how to protest peacefully in order to get your points across in a way that is informative as well as effective. He addresses the different forms of protest, such as kneeling, marching, making signs, going on strike, and many others. Rob Sanders also stressed the importance of everyone coming together in these protests in order to help push for change so that we all have equal rights. Rob Sanders also uses modern day examples like the football player kneeling to protest police brutality and the lady knitting the pink hat for women's rights in order to show that these are still things we have to work on and how we, as a society, must come together to peacefully push for change so that we all have equal rights. "An alphabet book to bring change, with the younger generation leading the way. Nonviolent protests play a major part in history. Sanders wants to ensure that readers learn the importance of taking a stand at an early age. Comparisons to Innosanto Nagara’s A Is for Activist (2013) are inescapable, but this primer carries a bit more depth. It is a direct call to action. The spread for I and J, for instance, pleads: “Inquire. / Invite. / Inform. / Imagine. // Join others on the journey. Join others in the fight.” (The words beginning with I appear on protest signs, while the words beginning with J appear in the narrative text.) The page for S implores readers to “Stand up. / Speak out. / Sit down. / Sing loud. / Be silent.” While the spread for P? A pure white background that whispers a single word: “Pray.” Historical events such as the Delano grape strike (“Boycott! Boycott! Boycott!”) share the book with current ones, such as a protesting football player (“Take a knee”). Schorr’s matte, cut-paper illustrations are full of intricate parts, echoing the ways individuals weave together to form a community. Various races, ages, ethnicities, and abilities are all present. Adult-child interaction is still needed to lift this work to its full potential, but an author’s note and glossary help provide context for an engaging conversation. Hopeful.

"In Knit a Hat, Take a Knee, young readers are taken through their #resistance ABCs. Through lyrically sparse writing, Rob Sanders introduces abstract concepts like "fighting for what you believe in" and turns them into something actionable"-- Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
