Willie and the All-Stars by Floyd Cooper

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

MY REVIEW:

This is a great kids story and history lesson all wrapped up into one book. I liked the way it talked about issues of race from the perspective of a kid and without making it into a big deal. It did a good job of talking about the problem of separation without going to deep and getting too emotionally charged for kids to understand. The kids and I enjoyed both the story as well as the illustrations.
