Gr 5 Up–Ruby Bridges displayed courage and resilience when chosen to integrate New Orleans’s all-white public school system in 1960 at the age of six. Bridges pens a “letter of peace” addressed to Congressman John Lewis and “the young peacemakers of the world.” She briefly describes her experience. She also explains what it was like for her father to witness his young daughter battle adversity and his own struggles.
K-Gr 2–In a book reminiscent of Lindsay George’s In the Snow: Who’s Been Here?, a young person goes out to the woods to play and discovers the drama of the outdoors. What Milo, who is white, really wants is for his mother to read him a story but she needs to work. Milo’s trek through the woods leads him to ponder all the activity that he sees traces of but does not witness.
