Week 3- Informational Text: I Am Rosa Parks




The story of Rosa Parks continues to be monumental. What makes this book unique is that it talks about her from her childhood onward. It describes the times she learned to stand up for herself and what she believes in and shows what led to that monumental moment on the bus.

I would give this book 5 out of 5 stars. The illustrations are so engaging and eye catching. Not only that, it shows that heroes do not just appear overnight. It teaches kids what it means to be brave and believe in who you are.
