An inspiring story of a friendship between Congressman John Lewis
and ten-year-old activist Tybre Faw by New York Times bestselling
author Andrea Davis Pinkney.
An inspiring story of a friendship between Congressman
John Lewis and ten-year-old activist Tybre Faw by New
York Times bestselling author Andrea Davis Pinkney!
Ten-year-old Tybre Faw is obsessed with history
and the civil rights movement, and he devours
every book he can find on the subject. When he learns of Congressman
John Lewis's harrowing and heroic march across the Edmund Pettus
Bridge in the fight for the right to vote, Tybre is determined
to meet him.
Tybre's two grandmothers take him on the seven-hour drive to Selma.
And as the two meet and become fast friends, Tybre joins Lewis
for the annual walk across the Edmund Pettus Bridge!
When John Lewis is laid to rest, Tybre is invited to read Lewis's
favourite poem, "Invictus," at the funeral service. Pinkney weaves
this story of a boy with a dream with the story of a true-life
hero (who himself was inspired by Martin Luther King when he
was a boy).
Who will be next to rise up and turn the page on history?
Perfect for those who want to learn more about the American civil
rights movement
An inspiring story of friendship
Full-colour illustrations by Keith Henry Brown.
