From Young People's Poet Laureate Carole Boston Weatherford and award-winning illustrator Bryan Collier, a stirring account of the 1965 Selma to Montgomery marches, as witnessed by the Alabama River.

Some say water is the mightiest force on earth.
But the yearning for freedom is even stronger.

For centuries, the Alabama River has been a witness. Buried in its riverbed are countless fossils and artifacts—as well as souls, secrets, and stories.

Troubled Waters brings history to life through the voice of this mighty waterway, from the earliest settlers on its shores to 1965, when Black citizens in Selma rose up like a river to demand their right to vote.

In this breathtakingly original picture book, celebrated creators Carole Boston Weatherford and Bryan Collier show that the Alabama River is much more than a witness to history. It is also a source of strength, keeping hope afloat through times of trouble; and a rising tide, coursing on a journey toward justice.

批評家のレビュー

* A gorgeously illustrated, truthfully told history that no collection should be without.
* Powerful. . . . Weatherford’s authentic and innovative storytelling transforms history into a deeply resonant experience. . . . Collier’s stunning mixed-media illustrations . . . visually echo themes of perseverance and hope.
* In ­Weatherford’s ­exceptional account of the ­historic events, the river becomes a character itself. . . . This phenomenal historical account of the Alabama River is a must-purchase for all ­library collections.
* Boston Weatherford and Collier limn an arresting history of the Alabama River from the water body’s perspective in this distinctive picture book. . . . [Shows] how the living and the lost share the same history. It’s an accurate telling that acknowledges a continuation of resistance.
* In this poetic, sweeping picture book, the Alabama River has a story to tell, one about unendurable losses and heartbreak, but also one that has threads of hope, justice, and change.
This beautifully realized picture book from venerable author Weatherford. . . . packs in power as it illuminates Alabama’s past.
A notably original picture book that recounts history in a powerful way. . . . Offers young readers a gut-wrenching yet necessary history of our nation’s ongoing struggle for freedom and justice.
This book is sure to spark discussion and empower readers of all ages.
Heartbreaking and legendary.
A moving tale of triumph that brings the past to life.
Uplifting and inspiring . . . a welcome addition to civil rights picture books.
