I really liked the book. Every time I read that book I always think of what it would be like to be Martin Luther King. I would have hated growing up like he did not being able to do certain things, but I'm really glad he changed that now.

Martin's Big Words was a wonderful book. It tells a lot about Martin since he was little. In the end it tells about his "I Have A Dream' speach It was wonderful.
