The Story of Martin Luther King Jr.

My favorite book about the life of Dr. Martin Luther Kind Jr, is Martin’s Big Words. Written to tell the story and accomplishments that students enjoy as a read aloud, or to read independently, kids always want to discuss the man with a dream.  I love when kids are SHOCKED that people were segregated and still are in parts of the world.  Today’s kids don’t see color……SCORE!!!!

Hurry to check these books out of your school or local library for student access in your classroom.
