Rosa’s Bus<\/a>
\nby Jo S. Kittinger (Author) and Steven Walker (Illustrator)<\/p>\n

Booktalk:<\/strong> Like all buses in Montgomery, Alabama, in the 1950s, bus #2857 was segregated: white passengers sat in the front and black passengers sat in the back. Bus #2857 was an ordinary public bus until a woman named Rosa Parks, who had just put in a long day as a seamstress, refused to give up her seat to a white passenger.<\/p>\n

Snippet:<\/strong>
\nWhen Bus #2857 rolled off
\nthe assembly line in 1948,
\nno one cheered,
\nno one paid attention
\nno one knew that one day
\nBus #2857 would be famous.
