Faith Ringgold (A and ILT)

List Price: $19.99 (Hardcover - Biography / Activist / Civil Rights / Bus Boycott- 1999)

This Rosa Parks biography begins with an African American girl named Marcie. She is waiting for the bus to school when a strange bus pulls up; for some reason, she boards it. There is no driver, but the bus itself talks. It informs Marcie that she is riding on the Rosa Parks bus, the very vehicle that Parks had been riding in 1955 when, refusing to give up her seat to a white man, she helped trigger the Montgomery Bus Boycott. This boycott lasted more than a year and resulted in more civil rights for African Americans. (32 pgs) Ages 5-9
