Sharing the dream / written by Shelia P. Moses ; illustrated by Keith Mallett.

Moses, Shelia P., (author.). Mallett, Keith, (illustrator.).

Summary:

"An inspiring portrait of a monumental day in US history, seen through a child’s eyes. Agnes can hardly contain her excitement! She’s headed to the March on Washington. Sitting on her father’s shoulders, she’s awed by the sea of people—people of every color, gathered together to be a part of the fight for equal rights for Black people. She soaks in the words of John Lewis and Josephine Baker and is mesmerized by Mahalia Jackson’s singing. Then Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. gives a speech about his dreams for his children—for all children. On the bus ride home, Agnes has her own that the words of Dr. King would be heard and embraced by the whole world" -- from book jacket.
