  • School Library Journal Reviews : SLJ Reviews 2021 April

    Gr 2–5—A chronological approach is used to describe the issues leading to major protests in the United States. Each book reaches back to the origins of the movement, the people who have influenced the cause, and the conclusion and/or future of the movement. While a few statistics and facts are provided, these short books serve more as an introduction to the protests than as resources for thorough research. Vibrant colors and photos fill the pages and a table of contents, glossary, time line, further resources, and index make these books user-friendly. VERDICT Young activists will find motivation and young researches will launch their projects with this great series.
