Y6 children read ‘March On!’ a biography about Martin Luther King written by his sister, Christine King Farris.

The book is a personal, celebratory account of the 1963 March on Washington. Christine King Farris writes about her childhood with Martin and the night before the march, when Martin stayed up to work on his speech until the very last minute. The book’s main focus, though, is on the march itself.
