"Martin Luther King, Junior" by my son at 4, in Answer to "What Can Kids Understand"

When my son was very young he fell in love with watching two videos, The Snowman and Our Friend Martin. Both were daily repertoire pieces. I thought the Martin Luther King Jr. video was over his head. Luca spoke very, very late. At four. So I called him over and asked him to "talk" to me about Martin, his friend. This is one of my favorite Martin Luther king Jr. poems in the world. I'm sorry, I know it is my son, but the poem, classic. The video is one where with young kids you need to explain flashbacks and be ready to explain and talk. A bit much for 1st, but support it is good. In fact a nice work to help understand hard concepts. First the video, Our Friend Martin (1998)
Starring: Edward Asner, Angela Bassett Director: Rob Smiley

Now the poem by Luca Puglisi....(at 4)
