Observation 5: Martin's Big Words

One visual thing I thought was important about this book was the church. In most of the illustrations there was something to do with a church. I thought this was because churches are know to be places where people come together and Dr. King was essentially trying to bring people together during the civil rights movement. I think the enlarged texts are still important today because they are some of the things King said that had a big impact on the civil rights movement and they are still remembered today. Even though the story just barely scratched the surface of Dr. Kings work, I think it was a good way to introduce us to his work. I think it was easy to follow and interesting, which kept our attention.
