Publisher Description

Remember is a unique pictorial and narrative journey that introduces children to a watershed period in American history and its relevance to us today.

This beautiful 80-page hardcover picture book is a Coretta Scott King Award winner.

Toni Morrison collected a treasure chest of archival photographs that depict the historical events surrounding school desegregation.

These unforgettable images serve as the inspiration for Ms. Morrison’s text—a fictional, approachable version of the dialogue and emotions of the children who lived during the era of “separate but equal” schooling.

Includes an introduction from Toni Morrison, a chronology of key events in Civil Rights and school integration history, and photo notes that describe the actual date, location, and content of each picture.
