Ron woke up early one morning with an important job to do! He went to the library to find a book about a kid that looked like him. When he went to check out the books he picked out, when he was reminded that only white people can check out books from the library! Ron was not going to back down! The police were called, but he was determined to make a change! Finally, the librarian, Mrs. Scott, gave him his own library card & from that day on, he was able to check out his own books!

This is a ctionalized account of how astronaut Ron McNair’s burning desire as a young, African American boy to read books about space, led him to take a stand in 1959 that would integrate his library in South Carolina.
