Children's Literature: Rosa by Nikki Giovanni - Coretta Scott King Award Book
http://ahv1214.blogspot.com/2008/03/rosa-by-nikki-giovanni-coretta-scott.html
Friday, March 14, 2008. Rosa by Nikki Giovanni - Coretta Scott King Award Book. The illustrations in this book (done by Bryan Collier) are wonderful, and really help to tell the story of the Civil Rights Movement. They add to the story, and I think the most powerful on is the cover itself, with the white man looking down sternly at Rosa Parks. It almost gave me chills to look at this drawing, it is that good.

Saturday, April 5, 2008. Bridge to Terabithia - Book versus Movie #2. Bridge to Terabithia,. The movie followed along closely with the story, with a few updates for a newer generation and some theatrical effects to enhance the experience.
