I’ve been an avid reader all my life and some of my favorite memories as a child are linked to books in one way or another. Books make such wonderful gifts, especially for children. Not only are they entertaining, they can also be used as educational tools to help them expand their vocabulary and teach them how to be kind and responsible citizens. In today’s new book news, Cara Reese has a new children’s book out, “Dr. King Goes to India! A Cool Kid’s Guide.” It is all about Dr. King’s trip to India, so if you’re looking for the perfect book for the child/children in your life that will teach them about Dr. King’s experience in India and his nonviolent philosophy, consider this new title, especially during Black History Month. Pick up your copy today – it is available on Amazon.
