Published to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Dr. King's assassination, "Dear Dr. King" features a collection of letters culled from a project masterminded by a Memphis schoolteacher and one Memphis parent of two school-age children. These letters represent the most thought-provoking, poignant, and sometimes humorous questions that children would liked to have asked Dr. King and provide a fascinating snapshot of race issues in America today. 60+ photos.
I was one of the kids who wrote letters for the book 4 years ago, and it was an amazing thing to me to be a "published author." A lot of my friends got to read their letters on Oprah and other TV shows. I really enjoyed reading my copy of this book. I would definitely recommend it to everyone, child and adult.
A real winner.

Saw the book featured on Oprah's show on Martin Luther King, Jr., and bought it. Have bought three more for all grandchildren. Touching, funny, revealing and very well designed. Every kid, of any age, should have one.
