Reviews
"The book gives readers a kid's-eye view of important happenings and reminds them that history is something that is in the making." -- Booklist "This accessible, lively, and heartfelt chapter book reades like a memoir and makes a perfect introduction to an extraordinary time when regular people, even ten-year-old girls, make a difference." -- The Horn Book "This easy chapter book, with simple sentences, plenty of white space, and a liberal sprinkling of Gordon's expressive black-and-white drawings, is an appealing and welcome title." -- School Library Journal

Synopsis
Through the eyes of ten-year-old Abby, readers see what life was like for a black child in Nashville in 1960, when she couldn't get served a milkshake at a downtown restaurant. Illustrations., A historical chapter book series from three-time Coretta Scott King Award winner and Newbery Honor author, Patricia C. McKissack. Why has their grandmother bothered keeping a menu from a restaurant that closed years ago, a restaurant that never served very good food in the first place? Three cousins listen to Gee's own story, set in the early days of lunch counter sit-ins in Nashville, a time when a black child could sit up front in a city bus but still could not get a milk shake at a downtown restaurant. Through the eyes of ten-year-old Abby, young readers see what it was like to live through those days, and they'll come to understand that, like a menu, freedom is about having choices. Each book in this series tells the story behind a different "scrap of time"; together they form a patchwork quilt of one black family's past that stretches back for generations. "A perfect introduction to an extraordinary time when regular people, even ten-year-old girls, make a difference." -- The Horn Book "The book gives readers a kid's-eye view of important happenings and reminds them that history is something that is in the making." -- Booklist
