Our class read My Brother Martin in our Journeys book.  We learned that some of the details the author chooses to add to their story actually give us hints about THEIR thinking.  Authors try to get us to think what they think.

In this particular story, the author is also the narrator.  Martin Luther King's sister talks about what her brother Martin was like when he was a kid.  She talks about funny things that they did when they were kids, and obstacles (that means problems they had to solve). 

Can you tell what the author wanted us to think about her brother?  Leave a comment below!
