When Martin Luther King Jr. Wore Roller Skates | Mark Andrew Weakland
1 post | 2 read | 2 to read
Martin Luther King Jr. led the American Civil Rights Movement. But do you know what he was like as a child? From roller skating to playing football and basketball, Martin was a fun-loving child. This playful story of his childhood will help young readers connect with a historic figure and will inspire them to want to achieve greatness.

Mehso-so

#JumpIntoJanuary Day 20: #MLKingJrDay. The interesting tidbits for me were those about MLK‘s childhood: when they will say grace before a meal such as the one above, or when he would play with friends in his neighbourhood, regardless of their race or skin colour. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-ic0

LibrarianRyan Is this from the same series of the 100 peieces of Gum and Ruth Bader Ginsburg? 3y
LibrarianRyan @GatheringBooks Yeah. Okay. I like the illustrations. And I liked the RGB story, but I didn't love it. They use the catchy title to pull your attention from the I Am, Who is, and Little People Big World titles, but I have found they are not always as good. But their title campaign is working. 3y
GatheringBooks @LibrarianRyan exactly! This is why it is a so-so for me as well. 💕💕 3y
Eggs Love these illustrations💕 3y
