(4) K-3 Illustrated by AG Ford. The son of the civil rights leader recalls life with his famous father. At home "Daddy" could be jovial and playful, but young Marty grew up knowing his father's life was in constant danger. Ford's paintings imbue this straightforward account--conveyed without much depth--with emotion. This book could supplement introductory units on the heroes of the civil rights era.
