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.
