(3) K-3 Illustrated by Cozbi A. Cabrera. A mother entrusts her daughter to those who will help her escape slavery. Frightened and sad, the girl is comforted by her mother's quilt, embedded with hidden messages of strength and love. The text conveys the pathos of slavery and one family's desperate quest for freedom. Atmospheric acrylic paint and textile collages extend the narrative. Reading list.
Reviewer: Henrietta M. Smith
