THIS ,MOVIE IS AMAZING. EVEN IF IT WAS SAD OR TENSE, ID RECCOMMEND IT FOR TEACHING ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED IN ALABAMA IN 1963... AND YES, THE CHURCH BOMBING WAS REAL, VERY, VERY SAD BUT TRUE.

Terrific. Simple coming of age story in the middle of America's coming of age story. A focus on the heroes of the civil rights movement from the perspective of the people whose lives were changed forever. Appropriate for children, but still powerful for adults. If your child doesn't yet know this history, this is the time, and this is the vehicle.

I read the book, great!!!!, the movie even more detailed so it makes it even more great, please read and watch the movie and book you will have a good taste of how segregation changed the life of a African-American family.Kenny is very funny and also byron, a lot of figurative language too.
