Reviews

 "...Michael’s discoveries remind us that we are interconnected and help us to believe in the possibilities for a better future. I can’t wait to share White Water with the children in my life…and come to think of it, I’ll be sharing it with the adults too."
--Melissa Harris-Perry
  Tulane Professor
 MSNBC Contributor and Columnist for The Nation 

Bandy and Stein effectively portray the milieu with simple details, conveying the daily reality of segregation in a way that matter-of-factly brings home both its irrationality and its absurd complexity.

 --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books  

  “Michael’s examination of the myths that rule his world should inspire modern readers to do the same.”
--Kirkus 

 The authors give their young character a little sassiness along with his need to know, and kids will surely identify with Michael and his curiosity. Inspired by a true story, this book is an excellent way to show 4-to-8-year-olds a dose of history in a way they'll understand. 

 --The Washington Informer 


  Strickland’s illustrations compliment the text beautifully with a commitment to detail. Textually and visually, this title simply comes together very well. 

 --Library Media Connection (starred review)
