Saw her on the Colbert Show last night and had to read through it。 I love her story and her bravery。 And through her bravery， she inspires so many to take a stand against any challenges we face。

Celebrating children's voices through one who was a famous child herself， Ruby Bridges， put together a book in which students have written to her and she answers them。 It was lovely to read but it wasn't anything that I felt an overwhelming sense of connection to the presentation of the material and the message， but it's there for anyone who wants it。 Giving students voice is always a lovely thing， I will never discount that。 Celebrating children's voices through one who was a famous child herself， Ruby Bridges， put together a book in which students have written to her and she answers them。 It was lovely to read but it wasn't anything that I felt an overwhelming sense of connection to the presentation of the material and the message， but it's there for anyone who wants it。 Giving students voice is always a lovely thing， I will never discount that。 。。。more

Today is Martin Luther King day and I attended a program with Ruby Bridges。 So inspiring。 This is obviously a children’s book targeting young people who are currently the same age as Ruby when she desegregated an elementary school in New Orleans。 The art work is beautiful and engaging。 The format of letters and response humanizes the children and Bridges。 Can’t wait to share the book with younger students。

Amazing Amazing Amazing！ I love this book。 Everyone should read this book。 It shows how kids see our world and their ambition to change it for the better。 For Everyone。 And to read Ruby Bridges' replies to each of these letter from children around the country is inspiring。 My favorite quote is on the back cover: "Racism is a grown-up disease。。。 stop using us to spread it！" Amazing Amazing Amazing！ I love this book。 Everyone should read this book。 It shows how kids see our world and their ambition to change it for the better。 For Everyone。 And to read Ruby Bridges' replies to each of these letter from children around the country is inspiring。 My favorite quote is on the back cover: "Racism is a grown-up disease。。。 stop using us to spread it！" 。。。more

This is a cool book。 It’s beautifully illustrated and the letters are short but powerful。 It’s very easy to understand。 Also- there’s a glossary of highlighted terms at the back which is super helpful though some of the definitions， in my opinion， are more confusing than the original word。
