Warriors Don’t Cry By Melba Pattillo Beals
As a teenager everyone wants to fit in. Melba did not stand a chance of that happening as one of the Little Rock Nine who integrated Central High in 1957. With a guard posted to make sure Melba survived the day and armored tanks to keep back the mobs, she tried to make it through 10th grade alive. This is her story of what happened in the school that year.
Recommended for mature 8th graders and up.
