Martin Luther King's birthday is next week -- which makes this week a good time to read about Dr. King and the Civil Rights Movement.

You can find books about Dr. King's life in the juvenile biography section, filed alphabetically under his last name.

If you want information about the Civil Rights Movement in the United States, look in the juvenile nonfiction section in the 323s.

Dr. King was well known for many moving speeches and sermons including his famous I Have a Dream Speech. He delivered this inspiring oration on August 28, 1963 at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC.
