[Ruth · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very well done biography that covered the major points of his life. Included quotes from his I Have a Dream speech. The drawings were very well done, illustrating the events without being so graphic that it would scare children of the intended audience age range. I'm hoping there are more biographies in this series and that they are of equal quality.

This tells about Martin Luther King Jr.'s life from an outside perspective. I use this book during a literature circle activity with my students during PTLS>
