Description

Dr. King dreamed of a world where children would 3not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.2 As the poetic, innocent, funny, and wise letters in this collection make clear, kids today are striving, in ways Dr. King might not have foreseen, to make that dream come true. They write about their hopes and fears, and about friendships among classmates, regardless of color. But they also write about hatred that persists. They not only write about gangs and violence, but also about the support of parents and about the inspiration of the man to whom these letters are addressed. This book does more than offer tribute to the lasting impact of a great leader; it serves as an urgent and eloquent portrait of America. Photos.
