Freedom Walkers by Russell Freedman is a really wonderful nonfiction book that was honored by inclusion on the 2010 Rebecca Caudill list. I just finished reading it last week and I truly enjoyed it. (I love anything with a lot of Martin Luther King Jr. quotes!) I thought it gave a really balanced account of the Montgomery Bus Boycott, and a lot of really interesting information about Rosa Parks and the other major players. It was well-researched and told in a narrative format, making it accessible to kids. Check it out!
