EastonM writes the following about The Watsons Go to Birmingham--1963 (Newbery Honor Book, 1996, No 2) :

I thought the Watons Go to Birmingham 1963 was exalent. The book was writen by Chistopher Paul Curtis the book is called The Watsons Go to Birmingham 1963. This story is told though the eye's of Kenny Watson. The charictors are his older brother named Byron, a younger sister Joetta, a moma, and a papa. Mama thinks it's to cold and talks his papa into going to her mother's house. Her mother's house is in Birmingham, Alabama. But they don't know that in Alabama black(negros) are being discriminated with was called the Cival Rights Movement.
