These books make the lives of these role models accessible for children, providing a powerful message to inspire the next generation of outstanding people who will change the world!
MY RATING: ★★★★★ The life story of Rosa Parks is a very good way on teaching kids to treat everyone with equality. This children's book should be promoted so that a lot of young readers will be inform of the absurdity of racism. We may not be aware of it, but racism still do exist even at present. It always up to the parents, teachers, or guardians of children to teach them that whatever color or from wherever you came from, we are all coequal. Lastly, Rosa Parks' bravery and standing up for what is right also set as an example and inspiration not only to children but also to adults. |
