Rosa Parks: My Story

Rosa Parks: My Story

Rosa Parks’s story is a good book because of everything that goes on in it. Rosa Parks' book talks about segregation and all the struggles she went through to finally get her freedom. The book goes through from Rosa was a child and how she was since her passing a couple years back. One story she talked about was how when she was little her grandfather told her the thing he never wanted them to do was work for a white man. Rosa grew up in Montgomery, Alabama, she went to Mrs. Whites school were she was one of the top students in her class.
Rosa Parks as a young woman (17) started to date Raymond Parks, who was a barber at the time. Rosa eventually did marry him and had a great marriage with him until he died.
This book in my opinion is a great book because it teaches character and history. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys history, biography, or anyone who enjoys reading about the world and its history.
