Specification Martin Luther King Jr. was a black boy born to a church pastor. Because of his different skin color, he couldn't play at his friends' houses or go to school with them...

This is the "First Biography Picture Book" series that introduces the stories of people who worked to make the world a better place, keeping their childhood dreams and desires in mind. There are explanations and photos at the end of the book.
