In 1850 the Detroit River was a major track along the Underground Railroad the last step to freedom. The journey across the river was dangerous, especially in winter and especially for a 12yearold boy. When Louis's father left him in charge of the farm he offered his son this advice, 'If you don't know what to do, just do what you think I would have done.' Louis relies upon his father's words of wisdom when a runaway slave and her two children come looking for safe passage. In the second title in our Tales of Young Americans series Gloria Whelan author of National Book Award winning Homeless Bird beautifully creates a suspenseful comingofage story while illuminating a difficult time in America's past. Ms. Whelan's narrative again shows the human spirit will forever shine brightly in dark times. Freedom River part of our Young Americans series will quickly become a favorite for its important message and look at history from a youngster's eye. Artist Gijsbert van Frankenhuyzen a Sleeping Bear Press favorite treats the material as only he can. Each illustrated page demonstrates the same mastery and devotion to his craft as the young heroes he brings to life.
