Two young girls not only witness but help to change history in this inspiring and urgent Civil Rights-era picture book by three-time Coretta Scott King Award winner Angela Johnson. 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.Binding Type: Hardcover

Great for power chewers
Size: Large, Color: Bundle
Nothing beats Nylabone!!! Our lab has destroyed everything else… even the extra durable black kongs. Finally a chew toy that is super durable and great size.

Dogs love them
Color: GT-2P
I have 5 large dogs and they love their chew toys but are picky and tend to tear up the ones they like. These large bones are perfect for my 70 - 90 pounds dogs and are almost indestructible. Most chew toys last a day with them these have lasted a couple of weeks and show no sign of being destroyed anytime soon.

Works for my aggressive chewer
Color: GT-2P
It is extremely hard material! My puppy is 6 month old and rips through everything and these absolutely have lasted longer than any plush toys, bully sticks etc. I honestly didn't think I would like them for her but she definitely aggressively choose on these all the time and they hold up so well. If you have a dog that aggressively choose these work for mine.
