From the Publisher
Gwen Didn't Care is a charming story, carefully crafted for children, that sheds light on our nation's unjust history of Jim Crow. Narrated by the author, life-long educator and civil rights activist Dr. Gwendolyn Fuller Mukes, the book weaves a tale of an exciting childhood memory of a visit to the "one-day-a-week" zoo in 1948. The book is adorned with vivid illustrations that cleverly incorporate hidden details, promising to engage, captivate and educate young readers every time they revisit its pages. Recommended for ages 6 to 12.
