2 posts | 4 read | 1 to read

Lindy and her doll Sally are best friends - wherever Lindy goes, Sally stays right by her side. They eat together, sleep together, and even pick cotton together. So, on the night Lindy and her mama run away in search of freedom, Sally goes too. This young girl's rag doll vividly narrates her enslaved family's courageous escape through the Underground Railroad. At once heart-wrenching and uplifting, this story about friendship and the strength of the human spirit will touch the lives of all readers long after the journey has ended.

A young girl and her family escaping slavery through the Underground Railroad as seen through the eyes of the girl's doll. A beautiful look at a brutal subject. Beautiful illustrations. Highly recommended for kids learning about slavery and the Underground Railroad. Just an overall fantastic read.
