"As the first black child to attend an all-white elementary school, six-year-old Ruby Bridges finds herself in the center of a storm of hatred and prejudice. Each day, Ruby faces angry protesters as she is escorted to and from the first grade by federal marshals. With courage and dignity beyond her years, she becomes an important part of history and an example for all Americans. This is her extraordinary story. Pulitzer Prize-winner Robert Coles presents a moving portrayal that captures a young girl's amazing courage and faith. George Ford's powerful illustrations bring to life an important event in American history." --
