These are awesome, educational and inspirational books about the greatest Civil Rights leader ever known! I’m in awe of the man’s strength through peace approach.
This is a great list of books on Martin Luther King. My kids have a few of these books and have passed them down now to our grandkids. It’s so important that our children learn the history of Mr. King, to be honest I wish they would discuss him more to our children in school.
This is a great list. I love when the art is attractive to kids so they want to read history!
Those look like great books. My daughter and her friend (4th grade) just put together a presentation on MLK for their class!
As a homeschooling Mom I love to find biographical books that are age appropriate for my kids. I think the kids learn so much better from the colorful art and fun story telling than from textbooks that seem boring.
This is a great list of books. I need to get some of these for my grandsons.
These are great books. I would get them for my nieces.
