Explore the inspiring true story of This Promise of Change, one of this year’s finalists for the annual Children’s History Book Prize. An autobiographical account written in verse, it tells the story of Jo Ann Allen and 12 classmates who were part of an early effort to desegregate schools in the South.

Authors Jo Ann Allen Boyce herself and Debbie Levy log on remotely to share personal anecdotes and describe what it was like to collaborate.
