520    A moving tribute to the little-known history behind the 
       first Memorial Day, illustrated by Coretta Scott King 
       Award winner Floyd Cooper Today is a special day. Eli 
       knows it's important if he's allowed to miss one second of
       school, his "hard-earned right." Inspired by true events 
       and told through the eyes of a young boy, this is the 
       deeply moving story about what is regarded as the first 
       Memorial Day on May 1, 1865. Eli dresses up in his best 
       clothes, Mama gathers the mayflowers, Papa straightens his
       hat, and together they join the crowds filling the streets
       of Charleston, South Carolina, with bouquets, crosses, and
       wreaths. Abolitionists, missionaries, teachers, military 
       officers, and a sea of faces Black, Brown, and White, they
       march as one and sing for all those who gave their lives 
       fighting for freedom during the Civil War. With poignant 
       prose and celebratory, powerful illustrations, A Day for 
       Rememberin' shines light on the little-known history of 
       this important holiday and reminds us never to forget the 
       people who put their lives on the line for their country.
