Review:
"The most outstanding title for 1996."
From the Author:
Smithsonian Magazine
Selected as ABA Pick of Lists
There was a question posed by a reviewer that a child old enough to read would know what the sign meant. In my family it was not customary for my parents to expose us to what "whites" would not let us do. I was twelve years old before I truly understood racial prejudice, and to be honest, even now I don't understand it. I have always loved all people and will continue to do so until I leave the earth. Hopefully this book will help today's children understand how foolish it is to use skin color to measure another person's worth.

Text is bright and free of marks or underlining. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. 1996 Notable Book for Children, Smithsonian Magazine Pick of the Lists, American Bookseller In the segregated south, a young girl thinks that she can drink from a fountain marked "Whites Only" because she is wearing her white socks. When Grandma was a little girl in Mississippi, she sneaked into town one day. It was a hot day--the kind of hot where a firecracker might light up by itself. But when this little girl saw the "Whites Only" sign on the water fountain, she had no idea what she would spark when she took off her shoes and--wearing her clean white socks--stepped up to drink. Bravery, defiance, and a touch of magic win out over hatred in this acclaimed story by Elevelyn Coleman. Tyrone Geter's paintings richly evoke its heat, mood, and legendary spirit. .
