Discover how she persevered for Civil Rights during the trying Montgomery bus boycott and the difficult years that followed.

Don't Know Much about Rosa Parks, Vol. 3
(Claudia) A commendably multi-dimensional portrait of Rosa Parks, from childhood annecdotes and character portrait, through many years of dedicated, difficult, and not always appreciated activism on behalf of the civil rights movement, on into her later years, when she continued to witness for civil rights while supporting herself at low-wage work. The format of bold type questions, followed by a page or so of large-size text, presents the information in manageable-size pieces within a coherent larger structure. Historical information is presented straightforwardly but not simplistically, as are Parks' complex feelings of hope and bitterness, compassion and anger. Dynamic black and white drawings and occasional photographs add to the telling. Gr. 4-7.
(Booklist) Favorable: "… accessible text and design …" "Plenty of questions … and clear, detailed answers …"
