M.L.K.: Journey of a King

(4) 4-6 This sturdy biography, which the author acknowledges doesn't explore King's flaws, employs quotes from his writings and speeches. More illuminating still are Bolden's well-chosen details: e.g., King used a reference book called Increasing Your Word Power. The pull-quotes and out-of-proportion captions to the often strikingly intimate black-and-white photos sometimes make it unclear where the reader should look next. Timeline. Bib., ind.
