Thumbs Up“History is so rich. This book is short. Short enough for to sit and read in one sitting. It’s a skim through Corettas life with Dr king. Would highly recommend this especially for children.”
Slightly Smiling Face“I just finished listening to Coretta Scott King’s autobiography, narrated by January LaVoy. I think LaVoy did an amazing job! The audiobook is surprisingly short, considering everything Mrs. King accomplished in her life, the challenges she faced, and the depth of her story. But it’s still a great way to learn more about her life and legacy. I would recommend this to anyone.”
