Eight-year-old Aidan and his friend Gussie have joined the picket line at the cotton mill to demand the chance to go to school instead of work.

She wants to lead them on a march from Pennsylvania all the way to President Theodore Rooseveltês summer home in Oyster Bay, New York! This inspiring tale is a tribute to the extraordinary spirit of Mother Jones, and a testament to the power of standing up for whatês right, no matter how old you are.
