Nonfiction Book | 5+ - Rosa Parks

$18.95 CAD

As a child, Rosa Parks was already sensitive to the injustices faced by Black people in the American South. While white people took the bus to their big schools, she had to walk miles to get to her tiny one. This quiet but determined woman became famous for refusing to give up her seat on the bus to a white man, as the law of the time required. Her action sparked a massive movement: the Montgomery bus boycott. Rosa Parks is a key figure in the fight against racial segregation in public places.
Carried by colorful and lively illustrations, the album From Small to Big, Rosa Parks allows us to address important and necessary themes such as equal rights and self-respect.
