Giovanni, N. (2005). Rosa.
NY: Holt.
This book talks about how Rosa Parks represented all the
black people. She was tired of having separate balconies, drinking fountains,
taxis for black and white people. One day she decided to get together with
other black people to defend their rights. After a year of her arrest, the Supreme
Court ruled that segregation was wrong.
Evaluative Criteria: Style
The style of Rosa
by Nikki Giovanni makes the reader understand the passion the main character
has towards equality. It encourages curiosity and wonder during the time of the
boycott.
