pickThis book is historical fiction. It follows the abuse of the main characters under slavery. However, these people also have the magical ability to fly. The book follows the violent treatment of the enslaved people and them slowly being able to regain their ability to fly that was taken away. It is a story of the human spirit and triumph.
This was a very emotional book that is an amazing book to read to older kids during history lessons about slavery.
pickCurrently working on a project to put the Corretta Scot King Awards in their own section of the library. These books definitely need to be recognized and I think many students and teachers will benefit from them 💙 I remember watching the Wishbone Story of this one, and now I have read it! BEAUTIFUL words and illustrations.
