In this true story, Paula Young Shelton tells the story of racial injustice through her eyes as a child. In the days of segregation, Paula Young Shelton and her family moved from the north back to the south to march for all African American's right to vote. Through perseverance, the laws were changed allowing African Americans to vote. This is proof that if we can all come together, no matter race or gender, we can accomplish anything and make changes for the better. This book is great for any lesson on the Civil Rights Movement. The language gives a clear and detailed view of what happened without being too much for children. I like that the book is broken into sections. It really helps to see the transitions and stages of the movement. I also like that the book included Dr.King seeing that he was an important part of the movement. My favorite part is that it is written from a child’s perspective, I think it’ll help students relate to what it felt like to be a child in that time period. Beautifully written book. This book is about a young girl, Paula, daughter of a civil rights leader, Andrew Young. Throughout the book we follow along on Paula's journey to equality. Even through the struggles, they still join in on the historic march from Selma to Montgomery hoping to make a difference. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Paula grew up in the deep south, in a world where whites had and blacks did not. With an activist father and a community of leaders surrounding her, including Uncle Martin (Martin Luther King), Paula watched and listened to the struggles, eventually joining with her family--and thousands of others--in the historic march from Selma to Montgomery.
