I reviewed the first two also and I love them. I am going to look for that last one “I Have a Dream” because I don’t remember reading it before. Thanks for the review!

“My Brother Martin: A Sister Remembers Growing Up with the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.” by Christine King Farris.
This is an amazing picture book written by MLKjr’s sister. It’s such a personal story and really helps to make MLKjr a real person. I used this with my elementary students and it really brought home who MLKjr was and where he came from. Also has fantastic illustrations.
