The New York Public Library and the District of Columbia Public Library’s Bunchbrary
We’ve bumped this week’s Bunchbrary up a day to include some great reads for Martin Luther King Day. Martin Luther King Day is a great opportunity to talk to your kids about racism, segregation and standing up for your rights.
Books for ages 4-8:
A Picture Book of Martin Luther King, Jr. by David A. Adler, illustrated by Robert Casilla
A brief, illustrated, biography of the Baptist minister and civil rights leader whose philosophy and practice of nonviolent civil disobedience helped American blacks win many battles for equal rights.
Martin Luther King by Rosemary L. Bray, paintings by Malcah Zeldis
Folk-art paintings enhance the text of this portrait of the courageous civil rights leader.
