Through My Eyes
Ruby Bridges recounts the events from her historic integration of a first-grade classroom to her adult life. Filled with archival black and white photographs and lots of memoirs, this first-person account is a timely addition for this 50th anniversary of the 1954 Brown vs. Bd of Education Supreme Court decision. Oprah Winfrey reunited Ruby Bridges and her first-grade teacher on her television show and a picture of that event is included in this book. A large-sized picture book for children and adults - add this to your Black history collection.
