Your grandchildren might already know the gist of The March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom in 1963, but March On! offers an interesting glimpse of the painstaking preparation the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. went through to make sure that speech was perfect. Written by MLK's older sister, Christine King Farris, the book describes a sleepless night Dr. King spent fine-tuning one of the greatest orations of all time. The power of words and their historical impact are brilliantly highlighted for your budding bibliophile.
