In Rosa's Bus: The Ride to Civil Rights by Jo S. Kittinger and illustrated by Steven Walker, second through fifth graders are introduced to a bus that played an important role in the civil rights movement. This is the bus upon which Rosa Parks was arrested, starting the 382-day long boycott of the buses. This story can be used to highlight critical and supporting ideas, as well as historical context and a deeper understanding of surrounding events.
