I read this book with a small group in my placement. The students loved the book and had a strong reaction to how people were treating Ruby. We had great discussion and would read it again in the classroom.

“I Am Ruby Bridges“ is an inspiring children's book written by Ruby Bridges herself, offering a personal and poignant account of her experiences as the first African American child to integrate an all-white elementary school in the South. Through engaging storytelling and vivid illustrations by Nikkolas Smith, the book introduces young readers to Ruby's courageous journey and the historic moment of desegregation.

This is a very important story for children to hear. I would definitely read this in my future classroom to give a child's perspective of a big moment from our Civil Rights history.

This can be a hard story to read for young children as it can sad. However, Ruby's story is very amazing and I felt the book told it in a tasteful way. This book also has wonderful illustrations and a great glossary in the back.

“Racism is a grown up disease, and we must stop using our children to spread it.“ I loved this quote because a lot of parents put this pressure on their children which is not fair.
