Welcome to Litsy!

Great read about the effects of children‘s march for integration!

Reading along as Mike Gayle tries to tackle his 1200+ item To Do list over the course of one year was interesting, inspiring, and very funny. The items on his list were so relatable! This was my March selection for #MonthlyNonfiction2025 .

I love that this story talks about the civil rights movement. I think it would be a great history lesson and conversation starter about standing up for the things you believe in. I would read this to a 3rd or 4th grade class.

“Our march made the difference. We children led the way.“ This quote highlights the children who participated in pushing the civil rights movement forward.

I would use this book when teaching about civil rights movements.

Historical fiction - Published in 2018. Throughout Let the Children March, the author emphasizes the power of nonviolent resistance and the courage of the young participants. The children's march is portrayed as a pivotal moment in the Civil Rights Movement, demonstrating the potential of ordinary citizens, even children, to effect change.
