About this product

Product Information

There's a sweet, sweet smell in the air as two young girls sneak out of their house, down the street, and across town to where men and women are gathered, ready to march for freedom and justice. Inspired by the countless young people who took a stand against the forces of injustice, two Coretta Scott King Honorees, Angela Johnson and Eric Velasquez, offer a stirring yet jubilant glimpse of the youth involvement that played an invaluable role in the Civil Rights movement.

  • A Sweet Smell Of Roses by Angela Johnson (2004)

    I bought several Angela Johnson books for an inspiring teacher that helped me through my student teaching. This author is one of her favorites and I was inspired now by both the teacher and these books!
