(4) K-3 Time for Kids Biographies series. The opening chapter introduces Rosa Parks through her historical stand against segregation. Succeeding chapters present a simple, chronological text of her life, enhanced by color photographs and sidebars. An interview with Congressman John Conyers (Parks worked in his office) is appended. For the sake of accessibility, the text sometimes oversimplifies issues; lack of back matter is unfortunate. Timeline.
