Through a series of peaceful protests and amrches, King captured the attention of the worldand changed the lives of millions of Americans forever.
Editorial : From School Library Journal Gr 5-9-This book covers most of the high points of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s life and explains his role in shaping American history. However, some information has been omitted, such as the fact that he was not "Martin Luther" at birth but was given that name as a child when his father renamed both of them at the same time. Kumar's photorealistic illustrations are colorful, but his use of shadowing is sometimes excessive to the point of being distracting. The book would be most useful for reluctant readers who would like to learn more about King's life and understand why he is considered a hero. A foldout time line called "From Chains to Freedom: Black Emancipation in America" runs from slavery in the 1600s to the beginning of Barack Obama's presidency in 2009.-Andrea Lipinski, New York Public Library(c) Copyright 2013.

The purchase of this book is contributing financial gain to a broken down 60+ year old man who is in prison for killing the teenage model on the cover!. I was looking forward to a heart-racing romp through the unknown with one of my favorite authors, so I cleared the decks of all book-interfering obligations, poured myself a glass of my favorite beverage, and settled in for a good read. I really, really wanted to like it- but instead I found it frustrating to read. The manual works for me very well.. But what if somebody *does* make the case quite seriously? The author answers that even if plants could feel pain, we shouldn't eat meat anyway. My son, who is an aspiring writer was so excited to receive this! He didn't know that his favorite author eve
