2012 Moonbeam Children's Book Award Winners Announced

Sometimes a book takes 50 years to materialize: Little Rock Girl, 1957 began with a 55-year old photograph taken of two teenaged schoolgirls, the black one turned away by National Guard troops, the white one angrily cursing her from behind. The photographer returned to that school in Little Rock forty years later to photograph the same two women embracing, and finally speaking out about a past that haunted them both.
