(4) K-3 Blast Back! series. Illustrated by Roger Simó. Ohlin briefly chronicles African Americans' struggle for civil rights from slavery to today in this small nonfiction chapter book. Topics include the KKK, Jim Crow laws, protest demonstrations, and passage of the Civil Rights and Voter Rights acts; important individuals, such as Thurgood Marshall, Dr. King, and Rosa Parks, are profiled throughout. Cartoony pen drawings seem mismatched to the seriousness of the text. Bib.
Reviewer: Luther B. Clegg
