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.

An amazing Korean herbal soap!
An amazing product! With K-beauty products becoming popular worldwide, I was looking for a facial soap made with traditional Korean herbs & wild flowers etc. and ended up buying this product. Since it is a product made with traditional herbs & wild flowers, it has a strong herbal scent, but I personally liked the scent that reminded me of taking a herbal bath or herbal steam sauna. The foam was silky & sticky and after washing my face, it calmed down the redness and had a great soothing effect. If you want a medicinal soap made with traditional herbs & wild flowers that are not artificial, I highly recommend it. Although it wasn't very large size however it seemed to be made with such luxurious medicinal herbs & wild flowers. I love this product!

Smells heavenly!
- I could smell it immediately as soon as I pulled it out of the package; it smells so good! Really fresh. I think it’s the rosemary and eucalyptus oils in it maybe? - It has both a manufacturing date and an expiration date printed on the package - It has a really interesting texture (up close picture included). - It does produce a lot of lather, although it’s not a sticky lather like the listing photos show. You can absolutely tell that there are several different types of oils in the ingredients, as your skin feels very nice and moisturized after use. I’ve only been using the bar for a few days but I am a bit leery due to the number of oils in the ingredients that it may clog my pores. Nothing so far though! - Since it does create such a good lather, I can see how this bar would last you a long time. - The price is pretty in line with other snail mucin cleansers and given the ingredients I think this is a quality product so I think it’s worth giving a try!

Perfect for sensitive skin
Completely irritant free. The lather is exactly what you expect with a mucin labeled product- Slimy! But moisturizing.

Best eye patch to remove puffiness
Color: Collagen
This is by far the best eyepatch I have ever used. I have puffiness under the eyes when I wear these and I take the patches off my skin is so smooth. There is no puffiness. I do wear them overnight so I would say I wear them for like six hours and I have amazing results. I am definitely buying these again five stars.

Fantastic patches
Color: Collagen
These Biodance collagen peptide eye patches are truly fantastic! I have been consistently impressed by how revitalized and radiant my skin looks after every use—it feels genuinely nourished, hydrated, and leaves me with a healthy, natural glow. The results were so immediate and noticeable that I felt compelled to share the love, so I ended up purchasing several more sets to give as thoughtful self-care gifts for both my sister and my sister-in-law. I cannot recommend these highly enough to anyone looking for an effective addition to their Korean skincare routine!
