Martin's Big Words: The Life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.


Today in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., I want each of us to take a few minutes to reflect on the accomplishments he made in his short life. He had strong beliefs which he presented to the world in a peaceful manner. His legacy teaches us that one person CAN make a difference. Martin's Big Words: The Life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. is a must read for this annual day of remembrance. This picture book is written by Doreen Rappaport and illustrated by the talented Bryan Collier. This poignant book is rich in life-like, beautiful illustrations and portrays Dr. King as a young boy. The background for his notable life is set in this story. Click on the video below for a preview of the book.
