Kadir Nelson's been very, very busy recently...I think this is the third of his books published in 2009. It's gorgeous (as usual). And wow, what a cover!
Coretta Scott King (1927-2006)
This story, in verse form, does not take us to or beyond her husband's assassination. It's really the story of how the two of them moved on their journey toward civil rights.
"... hundreds then thousands
white and black
marched
in Alabama
Carolina
Georgia
and Chicago."
