Over the next few weeks, students in fourth and fifth grade will vote to help decide the favorite California Young Reader Picture Book for Older Readers. There are three nominees in this category:

Before She Was Harriet, by Lisa Ransome-Cline
The Skydiving Beavers, by Susan Wood
Let the Children March, by Monica Clark-Robinson (this week's selection)

Let the Children March, by Monica Clark-Robinson
Nearly 55 years ago, an anti-segregation march that came to be known as the Children's Crusade was instrumental in pushing President John F. Kennedy and Congress to adopt the Voting Rights Act. That event is chronicled as a semi-fictional narrative from the perspective of one of the young participants in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1963. Bolstered by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s assurances, the children endured snarling dogs, water hoses, and jail, emerging exhausted but undefeated. The illustrations bring to life the determination of the marchers without sugarcoating the reality. This story remains relevant as the struggle for justice and voting rights continues today.
Video Let the Children March, presented by StoryTimeWithMsMelange (running time approx. 7 min.)

Tomas Rivera, age 10

Dr. Rivera, circa 1980

This is a unique year, with a unique learning environment. It won't be money that will make the biggest difference, although it has sadly been further evidenced by learning during a pandemic that financial resources have a profound impact on learning success.

But a case can be made that a part of school success comes from within each student: personal determination and a love of learning. And for those of us lucky enough, if there is an educator who can open up the world of books to us.

Consider the example of Tomas Rivera. He was born in Texas in 1935. A migrant worker who valued education, he became a writer, a professor, and a national education leader. When Dr. Rivera died in 1984, he was the chancellor of the University of California at Riverside. The campus library now bears the name of the boy who was once encouraged to read by a librarian in Iowa.

Video An interview with author Pat Mora.
Tomas and the Library Lady, by Pat Mora
While helping his family in their work as migrant laborers far from their home, Tomás finds an entire world to explore in the books at the local public library.

Explore For those interested in reading more about social justice and the migrant farm worker experience in California, I recommend The Circuit, by Francisco Jimenez. It is an honest and powerful account of a family's journey to the fields of California. Once an undocumented immigrant, Dr. Jimenez is now a professor at Santa Clara University.

Explore For those interested in reading more about social justice and living as an undocumented immigrant, I recommend Dear America: the Story of an Undocumented Citizen, by Jose Antonio Vargas. Brought to the US from the Philippines as a child, he didn't learn of his undocumented status until he applied for a learners' permit and spent the next 20 years hiding in plain sight, writing for prestigious news organizations.

Explore For those interested in reading about an alternate school experience I recommend The Library Bus, by Bahram Rahman. Five-year-old Pari accompanies her mother on her library bus rounds for the first time, stopping at a village and a refugee camp so that girls there can exchange books and have a lesson in English. Talking with her mother as they drive, Pari learns that she is lucky that she can attend school the next year. Pari's mother had to learn in secret when it was forbidden to teach girls to read, and the young women the bus visits weekly have no other access to education. Inspired by the first library bus to operate in Kabul, Afghanistan. The afterword is an eye-opening glimpse into what childhood was like for the author, who grew up in war-torn Afghanistan.

MBUSD begins the 2021-22 school year with full-day in-person learning

The library is open to students and staff beginning August 30, 2021. All will wear masks inside at all times and will be mindful of physical distancing.
