On this special American holiday, we celebrate the vision and courage of American Civil Rights leader and Nobel Prize winner, Martin Luther King, Jr. Every year on this day, I read his “I Have a Dream” speech, which I have on the wall in my office. And every year I think about how there’s really nothing that could be done to improve that speech.

Today I was privileged to review an extraordinary picture book, My Uncle Martin’s Words for America. You’ve got to read it yourself. Both the story and the illustrations are wonderful.

Please read book my review of Olivia’s Birds: Saving the Gulf on Good Reads With Ronna. Olivia Bouler is a very special 11-year-old girl who helped raise over $200,000 to save the birds from the most recent oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Olivier not only wrote the book, but also created all the illustrations.
