In a rich blending of poetry and period-inspired artwork, Andrea and Brian Pinkney recount the final months in the life of Martin Luther King Jr., the peace-loving activist whose dream of equality changed the course of American history. Wonderful classroom plays of Martin Rising can be performed by using the “Now Is the Time” history and the 1968 time line as narration, adding selected poems from the book to tell the story!
