Lasky shows not only the facts of Wheatleys life but also the pain of being an accomplished black woman in a segregated world. BooklistIn 1761, a young girl was sold to the Wheatley family in Boston, who named her Phillis after the slave schooner that had carried her. Kidnapped from her home in Africa and shipped to America, shed had everything taken from herher family, her name, and her language. But Phillis had a passion to learn. Amid the tumult of the Revolutionary War, Phillis Wheatley became a poet and ultimately had a book of verse published, establishing herself as the first African American woman poet this country had ever known.Back matter includes an authors note, an illustrators note, sources, and an index.
