EDITORIALS:

This is a wonderful and engaging children’s book. I found myself reading it in the voice of eight-year-old Nashida. Author Meredith Coleman McGee makes reading history fun again.

NOTE BY A DESCENDANT OF MOSES “CAP” MEREDITH

This was a very informational children’s book narrated by an eight-year-old fictional character. I have been in Mississippi all my life and didn’t know all the history in this book. The Moses Meredith Cultural Arts Book Series will be an asset to teach children culture and history.

Scott S. Smith 5.0 out of 5 starsAn important book about history for kids–and adultsAugust 11, 2019 – Published on Amazon.comChildren are our best hope for a better future and knowing American history is a vital foundation. Meredith McGee helped me with a profile of James Meredith based on her book and she has now taken the vital, educational, and even entertaining message of African American history in the South to another audience–not only kids, but their parents, who should be inspired to be involved in civics and politics.

10 thoughts on “Nashida-2 (Children’s Book)

  1. Dear Meredith,

    I read and enjoyed the book very much. Having mom and dad along for the ride, makes Nashida’s story more interesting. In particular, I like the way you deal with the racist issues and Jim Crow. Any kid who reads this book will receive an outstanding civics and history lesson about the State of Mississippi. Any adult who reads this book will receive an outstanding civics and history lesson. As usual, you bring manners and decency to Nashida’s story. Respect for all people is emphasized, as well. Donald Trump could benefit from reading this book…

    Happy Sunday,

    Deed

  6. DocLyne Ess Trey is excited about all of his new books. Using the time honored “Eenny Meeny Minny Mo Method, “Nashida Visits the Mississippi State Capitol” is the first of the Nashida series we are reading. We both read (alternate paragraphs) and we discussed vocabulary, Nashida’s friend Stacy’s sleepovers, boxing, watching TV during the week vs watching TV every day, and all kinds of things related to the intro we read.

    Had me thinking about The Kindergarten Chronicles and Gerry Brooks when reading with Little Ones.
