This is the story of Jackie Robinson and how he grew up to become the first African American to play major league baseball. Jackie lived before the Civil Rights Movement which means that life wasn't very fair for him. He wasn't allowed to swim in the pool or play on professional teams. He even got into a fight with a little girls father, but he would be brave enough to begin to change all of this. His love of winning sports would lead to the opportunity to play for the Brooklyn Dodgers. In the beginning, it wasn't easy, but eventually, everyone was allowed to play professional baseball because Jackie was brave enough to be the first black man to play for a professional baseball team. Reason for recommendation: This book can be a great inspiration to children, through this story they may realize there may be hard times and oppositions to your dreams but as you persevere or carry on with your hopes you will succeed.
