"In 1957, nine teenagers were chosen to be the first Black students to go to the all-White Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas. A group of people wanted to keep them out. The governor of Arkansas even sent in soldiers with guns to block the doors. But those nine students knew they had a right to a good education. And they would do anything to crack the wall that kept Black people and White people apart."(publisher) Reading level: Grade 3, Interest Level: Grades 2-4
