    Description of A Sweet Smell of Roses (Bound for Schools & Libraries)


    Two Coretta Scott King Award winners celebrate the participation of children during the Civil Rights movement, with this story of two young girls who sneak out of their house at night to go across town where men and women gather for a march for justice.
