Summary

If I were Martin Luther King Jr. tells the story of young Martin Alexander Cunningham and how he was terrified of the school's bully. Young Martin finds inspiration from a book about Martin Luther King Jr. that his mother let him borrow to solve his bullying predicament. Not only does he find a way to non-violently solve his problem, he also makes a life-long friend.

Bullying Facts:

  • Children skip school or classes to avoid being bullied.
  • 1 in 7 children are bullied.
  • Some children believe that adults won't help or make the bulling worse.
  • Some children drop out of school to avoid being bullied.
  • Some children under perform in class as result of being bullied.

This book has a great message, however, it does not replace the discussion that parents must have with their children about bullying. Parents must watch out for signs of bullying and create a welcoming atmosphere and open dialogue.
