Books for Children About the Black Experience
In the past for Martin Luther King Junior Day I have shared my favorite picture books about this incredible man. This year I thought I would highlight some books for older kids that help them understand the black experience. I have loved these stories and they bring a comprehension and empathy to the subject that is always appreciated. These stories are wonderful so share them with your children and help them understand our American history.

Written in verse and detailing the author's life as a young black girl in the 70s, this book is a gem. I found it beautifully written and poignant. This book is a perfect example of how a story written about a girl of color can deeply touch us to the core.
