SOMETIMES PEOPLE MARCH

Sometimes People March is a timely and inspiring introduction to how Americans exercise their right to free speech by marching in the name of justice, from debut author-illustrator Tessa Allen.

Ants are stronger together.
Bands are louder together.
People are more powerful together.

Throughout the ages, people have gathered in public demonstrations to fight for change. Sometimes People March introduces children to the concept of marches, as well as the many reasons Americans have marched - for racial justice, clean air and water, fair labor laws, gun control, LGBTQIA+ rights, and more. But every great movement starts small - it can even start with just one child asking an important question.

With a spare, inspiring text and gorgeous watercolor illustrations, debut author-illustrator Tessa Allen has created a timeless and important book for activists of all ages.
