Review Quotes: "Sharing a story of slavery isn't ever easy for any educator, yet Christine helps learners to think critically about American slavery while telling a more humanizing and accurate account of Harriet Tubman's life. Her developmentally appropriate language and visual graphics are just right for our elementary classrooms" --Britt Hawthorne, Anti-bias/Anti-racist Teacher-Educator (britthawthorne.com)
