Biographical Note: What if being brave meant going to school? Meet Ruby Bridges--the 6-year-old who made history with every step she took. In The Story of Ruby Bridges, young readers discover how one courageous child helped break down racial barriers during the civil rights movement. Ruby Bridges was the first Black student to attend an all-white public school in the southern United States. Before she helped desegregate schools and change the course of history, she was a happy girl who helped take care of her younger siblings and loved to play outside. Her life changed when she was chosen to attend William Frantz Elementary, where she became a civil rights leader at a very young age. What makes this biography a classroom and family favorite:
Part of the acclaimed The Story Of series, this isn't just a biography--it's a tool for raising brave, compassionate kids. If your child is ready to learn about history through the eyes of a child who lived it, The Story of Ruby Bridges is the perfect place to start.
