This beautifully illustrated book not only educates readers about the struggles for equality but also empowers them to take action in their own communities. ## Description Meet the youngest known child to be arrested for a civil rights protest in Birmingham, Alabama, 1963, in this moving picture book that proves you’re never too little to make a difference. Nine-year-old Audrey Faye Hendricks intended to go places and do things like anybody else. So when she heard grown-ups talk 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 those white stores! March to protest those unfair laws! Fill the jails!— she stepped right up and said, I’ll do it! She was going to j-a-a-il! Audrey Faye Hendricks was confident and bold and brave as can be, and hers is the remarkable and inspiring story of one child’s role in the Civil Rights Movement. Review: Important history! - Wonderful book. I love books about history. Especially about those who were at the forefront of historical changes, but may not be remembered as well for one reason or another. This book helps us remember Audrey, her sacrifice and her importance in ending southern segregation. Featuring beautiful illustrations by Vanessa Brantley Newton, this is a great book for kids of any age. As a bonus, there is a recipe for "Hot rolls baptized in butter" included. I can't wait to try! Review: Great kickstart to real life - I felt like this was an excellent book while teaching my 4 year old of the world. I did have to explain bits to her but overall the visuals really got her mind thinking about how “not nice” it is to act certain ways. The main character is spunky which keeps the heavy topic of the story moving and more upbeat for children. I’m very happy we have this book and recomend it to my friends! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #142,783 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #112 in Children's Social Activists Biographies (Books) #168 in Children's American History of 1900s #332 in Children's Multicultural Biographies | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 out of 5 stars 365 Reviews | ## Images ![The Youngest Marcher: The Story of Audrey Faye Hendricks, a Young Civil Rights Activist - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/716kjOrd21L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Important history! *by J***S on April 6, 2020* Wonderful book.

It was easy for her to then relate what happened then to our recent history and how it was important for her to continue to fight and stand up for civil rights. Hearing a true story of a brave young girl really made it hit home for her. I would highly recommend. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/38877648-the-youngest-marcher-the-story-of-audrey-faye-hendricks-young](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/38877648-the-youngest-marcher-the-story-of-audrey-faye-hendricks-young) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-14*
