Read Melody's Diary to discover her story set in Detroit during the Civil Rights Movement. This title is a part of American Girl's exciting new series featuring the diaries and journals of girls throughout history! Melody can't wait to sing her first solo at church, and she wants it to be special. What song should she choose? She gets advice from her big brother, who has his sights set on becoming a Motown star, and she gets inspiration from the words of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Melody's also inspired by her older sister, who's home from college with new ideas about marches and protests and making things fair. When Melody experiences discrimination for herself, she decides to stand up and speak out about civil rights, too. As her solo approaches, an unimaginable tragedy leaves her silent. Can Melody find her voice to speak up for those who can't?
