Johnny Q: Secret Agent: A.K.A. John Quinton Amos Johnson

By Sophia L. Tibbs Ed.D and Krystall Y. Tibbs-Green MPH

In reality, John Quinton Amos Johnson was just an eleven-year-old in the sixth grade at Alexis D. Human Junior High School who enjoyed sports, friends, and reading mystery novels. This is a story about a boy with a vivid imagination who lets onomatopoeia, or specific sounds, trigger his imagination, helping him create a wondrous world of fantasy in which he is the hero who captures the villain and saves the day.
