Meet the youngest known child to be arrested for a civil rights protest in Birmingham, Alabama, 1963, on this moving picture book that proves you’re never too little to make a difference.

Nine-year-old Audrey Faye Hendricks intended to head places and do such things as anybody else.

So when she heard grown-united states of americatalk about wiping out Birmingham’s segregation laws, she spoke up. As she listened to the preacher’s words, smooth as glass, she sat up tall. And when she heard the plan—picket the ones white retail outlets! March to protest the ones unfair laws! Fill the jails!—she stepped right up and said, I’ll do it! She used to be going to j-a-a-il!

Audrey Faye Hendricks used to be confident and bold and brave as can also be, and hers is the remarkable and inspiring story of 1 child’s role within the Civil Rights Movement.
