Celebrate African American history on December 1st with “Rosa”, a children’s biography of Rosa Parks, beautifully written by Nikki Giovanni and illustrated by Bryan Collier. December 1st marks the anniversary of Mrs. Parks’ refusal to move from her seat on a municipal bus in segregated Montgomery, Alabama, in 1955. “Rosa” presents the story of this inspiring act of courage and the Montgomery bus boycott that followed with detailed, colorful, realistic illustrations. “Rosa” is a treasure for readers of all ages.
