"Dad, what happened?""Why are they shooting?""What is this vigil for?"

The shootings keep coming, and so do Jeremiah''s questions. Dad doesn''t have easy answers, but that doesn''t mean he won''t talk about it—or that he won''t act. But what if Jeremiah doesn''t want to talk anymore? None of it makes sense, and he''s just a kid. Even if he wants to believe in a better world, is there anything he can do about it?

Inspired by real-life events, this honest, intimate look at one family''s response to racism and gun violence includes a discussion guide created by the Muhammad Ali Center in Louisville, Kentucky, a multicultural center and museum committed to promoting respect, hope, and understanding.

A portion of the publisher''s sales proceeds will be donated to nonprofit organizations that facilitate the empowerment of Black communities.

Time to board the bus! Liberty and her friend Abdullah, with their families and a diverse group of passengers, head off to their first stop: Jackson, Mississippi. Next on their map are Glendora, Memphis, Birmingham, Montgomery, and finally Selma, for a march across the iconic Edmund Pettus Bridge.

As told through the innocent view of a child, Liberty''s Civil Rights Road Trip serves as an early introduction to places, people, and events that transformed history. The story is inspired by an actual journey led by author Michael W. Waters, bringing together a multigenerational group to witness key locations from the civil rights movement. An author''s note and more information about each stop on Liberty''s trip offer ways for adults to expand the conversation with young readers.

A portion of the publisher''s sales proceeds will be donated to Foot Soldiers Park in Selma, Alabama, a nonprofit dedicated to honoring the history and continued relevance of the Selma movement.
