“Uplifting and memorable.”—School Library
Journal (starred review)
“Great for
reading aloud.”—Booklist (starred review)
Bestselling and multiple
Coretta Scott King– and Caldecott–winners Andrea Davis Pinkney and Brian
Pinkney present a poignant, blues-infused tribute to the men and women
of the Montgomery bus boycott, who refused to give up until they received
justice. An essential read-aloud for librarians, teachers, and
parents.
On December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks refused to give up
her seat on the bus, and the Montgomery bus boycott began. So did the boycott
blues. In the days that followed—382 days to be exact—many people decided
they’d rather walk than take city transportation.
Some started taxis, some
rode bikes, but they all walked and walked. With dogged feet. With dog-tired
feet. With boycott feet. With the boycott blues. The Montgomery bus boycott finally
ended when the Supreme Court ruled that segregation on public transportation
was unconstitutional.
The award-winning team
of Andrea Davis Pinkney and Brian Pinkney has created a rhythmic, informative
picture book that focuses on the people who walked and walked and walked and
never gave up.
