(3) 4-6 Illustrated by London Ladd. In this picture book biography, Dr. King's sister recounts events leading up to the day when her brother led the march on Washington, then describes that day in detail. Family pride is evident throughout the fluid narrative. Ladd's rich-hued paintings display the drama of the historic events. An author's note tells more about the civil rights movement.
Reviewer: Henrietta M. Smith
