Description
Debut author Amina Luqman Dawson pens a lyrical, accessible historical middle-grade novel about two enslaved childrens escape from a plantation and themany ways they find freedom.After an entire young life of enslavement, twelve-year-old Homer escapes Southerland Plantation with his little sister Ada, leaving his beloved mother behind. Much as he adores her and fears for her life, Homer knows theres no turning back, not with the overseer on their trail. Through tangled vines, secret doorways, and over a sky bridge, the two find asecret community calledFreewater,deep in the recesses of the swamp.In this new, free society made up of escaped slaves and some born-free children, Homer cautiously embraces a set of spirited friends, almost forgetting where he came from.But when he learns of a threat that could destroyFreewater, he hatches a plan to return to Southerland plantation, overcome his own cautious nature, and free his mother from enslavement. Loosely based on a little-mined but important piece of history, this is an inspiring and deeply empowering story of survival, love, and courage.
