Martin believed that no one should remain silent and accept something if it's wrong. And he promised himself that-when he grew up-he'd fight injustice with the most powerful weapon of all: words. This ebook features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the end, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the inspiring activist's life.

Rezensionen

"Although many publishers have a young readers series of historically important Americans, this one might be a better one to show, in just over 400 words, what the man meant to the nation and the civil rights movement of the 1960s." - The New York Journal of Books
