Book Reviews of The Story Of Ruby Bridges (Scholastic Bookshelf)

Book Review: This moving book drew a first grade class closer together.
Summary: 5 Stars

As a first grade teacher, I read this book with my students. We talked about how it must have felt to be Ruby, to have adults screaming at you, to be the only child in school. We talked about how lucky we are that everyone can be together in our class and ended with a group hug. The first graders wrote a touching letter to Ruby and are eagerly awaiting a reply from her. This book allowed my students to understand racial tensions from another 6 year old's point of view.
