Echo In The Distance
"Echo in the Distance" written by Shayla Michelle and illustrated by Kprecia Ambers, is a moving tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream shared from the Lincoln Memorial on August 28, 1963. Millions watched as the civil rights leader delivered his hope for the future, his dream for what America could be. Decades later, the iconic "I Have A Dream" speech has continued to transcend time. "Echo in the Distance" reflects on the speech, the history that followed and serves as a reminder that each individual can play a role in realizing the dream first shared in 1963.

Powerful words. This book is a poem about the echo of Dr. Martin Luther King's, I Have A Dream Speech.
The poem is full of metaphors that could serve as the starting point for analysis and as a mentor text. It would work wonderfully for middle school and high school language arts classes.
