Turning 15 on the Road to Freedom: My Story of the 1965 Selma Voting Rights March by Lynda Blackmon Lowery

4.0

Powerful collaboration between Lynda Blackmon Lowery's first person narrative, the two writers and the excellent illustrator. Love the combination, the simple storytelling, the context. She has a way of communicating emotion that is both plainspoken and compassionate. She was beaten severely on Bloody Sunday and talks about the murders that surrounded the march, which I think is why it's aimed at 12+.
