The Worst First Day: Bullied While Desegregating Little Rock Central High: (Civil Rights History)

Amazon Description: **Winner of the 2018 Moonbeam Multicultural Non-Fiction Gold Children’s Book Award** The Worst First Day: Bullied While Desegregating Little Rock Central High is the autobiography of Elizabeth Eckford, an iconic member of the Little Rock Nine who made civil rights history desegregating their school in 1957. This book introduces the next generation to a modern-day heroine. At 15 years of age, Elizabeth faced an incensed mob of segregationists and soldiers alone as the first member of the Little Rock Nine to arrive at Central High. She attempted to desegregate Central High in Little Rock, Arkansas, but was rejected. In her first autobiography, Eckford shares the backstory of the Little Rock civil rights crisis against issues of social justice impacting many today. Her historical insights are shared completely in verse, illuminated by captivating graphic artwork and accompanied by Pulitzer Prize nominated photography, insightful essays and correspondence that will educate readers.
