Thought this would be a perfect book to start today with the amazing news of yesterday. This has been stuck in my head all day that “ Rosa sat so Ruby could walk so Kamala could run!!!” 💙💙💙💙

Child of the Dream (A Memoir of 1963) | Sharon Robinson

pick

This B novel takes us inside a hard year of an African American teenager. The book shows the struggle this girl has to go through during segregation times in Alabama in 1963. Being a child of a famous baseball player she experienced amazing opportunities in her life, but at the same time she was the only black kid at her school and her family (especially her brother) was struggling to live up to her father‘s name. #UCFLAE3414SP20

Zelymarie.R I would like to use this book for an AS about Sharon Robinson. I could have my students answer a couple of HOT‘s questions about her that they could find on the book and/or other resources ESOL #36. 5y

Zelymarie.R UDL 1.3 offer alternative for visual information and this video (https://www.scholastic.com/teachers/videos/teaching-content/sharon-robinson-interview-robinson-being-daughter-jackie-robinson/) could help students visualize how was being the child of a famous baseball player. 5y

Brennap Oooh yes this would be a great story to read in the classroom to talk about history as well! 5y

victoriamaria I really enjoy how creative you are with your pictures 5y

DrSpalding This is an excellent choice...book and resource. Sharon Robinson is the daughter of the famous Jackie Robinson that broke the baseball barrier. 5y
