March On!: The Day My Brother Martin Changed the World by London Ladd, Christine King Farris

5.0

A beautifully illustrated and beautifully told story of the March on Washington and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s part in it as told by his sister. I liked how the story started with Martin editing and preparing his speech the whole night long before the march. It was a private glimpse of a man who crafted the most notable speech of our time and then led to meeting with the six march organizers, then meeting with members of Congress until Martin and the organizers joined in the crowd to get to the Lincoln Memorial. The telling of the story relayed the rise of emotions perfectly.
