Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
From award-winning creators Winsome Bingham and E.B. Lewis, The Walk (A Stroll to the Poll) is a powerful, full-color picture book story celebrating a journey crucial to our democracy: the walk to vote--a perfect read aloud.
My granny is taking me on THE WALK.
"Because leaders are not born," she says. "They're made through molding and modeling."
"What's the walk?" I ask.
"You'll see. And there's a few treasured souls coming too."
Granny and her granddaughter are going on a walk. But this is not just any walk. It's a walk that must not be missed; one that is more important than ever but has been made increasingly difficult for many to participate in. It's a walk that joins together a community; that lifts voices; that allows us to speak up, stand up, and say what's on our minds. It's a walk for hope.
Where are all these treasured souls going? Just WALK ON and find out.
Ages 4 to 8. Abrams Books for Young Readers.
As a little girl accompanies her grandma on a walk to the polling station, members of their community join and the grandmother explains the importance of their journey.
