Synopsis

Get ready to sing for justice with Mahalia Jackson in this exciting
middle grade nonfiction biography. Perfect for fans of the Who Was and
Little Leaders series, the books in the VIP series tell the true—and
amazing—stories of some of history's greatest trailblazers. Meet the VERY
IMPORTANT PEOPLE who changed the world!


Mahalia Jackson was known as the queen of gospel music. A close
friend of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s, she was also a civil rights activist
who sang at the March on Washington. And she traveled the world, too!
Experience all the inspiring moments in Mahalia’s big life in this thrilling
biography, packed with two-color illustrations and fun facts, like who invented rock and roll!


Short and engaging chapters are interspersed with special lists
and other information made to order to engage kids, whether they're already
biography fans or "have to" write a report for school. Extras include
a timeline, a bibliography, and a hall of fame of other musicians and civil
rights activists.


The VIP series features stirring adventures and fun facts about
some of history's greatest trailblazers—smart, tough, persevering innovators
who will excite today's kids. Featuring underappreciated historical figures and
groups, with a focus on leaders in science, activism, and the arts, the
nonfiction biographies in the VIP series are fun and appealing. Just looking at
the cover will make kids want to learn more about these VIPs, and once they
dive in they will zoom through stories that read like adventures.


Each book
in the VIP series allows your middle grader to experience all the fascinating
moments in some very important but lesser known lives. These biographies for
kids age 9-12 include: VIP: Dr. Mae Jemison: Brave
Rocketeer; VIP: Lewis Latimer: Engineering Wizard; VIP: Mahalia Jackson: Freedom's
Voice; and VIP:
