A stirring tribute from the granddaughter of Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King. Yolanda King is ready to lead in this powerful picture book text! She shows the world that young people are strong enough to carry on their elders' legacy while creating a new path for themselves. Her words are universal, painting an expressive tableau of the issues facing young people today racial equality, bullying, gun violence, climate change, disease, community, empowerment, inclusion and more. Yolanda's words will comfort and inspire the next generation of dreamers.
