A Children's Book Review Seven Middle Grade Books for African American History Month PickFans of Elijah of Buxton, Trouble Don't Last, and Stealing Freedom will be drawn to this tale of the incredible journey of an abused twelveyearold white girl and an escaped slave girl who run away together and form a bond of friendship while seeking freedom.Every day is a misery for a nameless, motherless Southern girl who is treated cruelly by her pa and brothers. Her life changes forever when a runaway slave named Zenobia turns to her for help and shelter. Longing for her own freedom, the girl decides to run away, and she and Zenobia set off on a harrowing journey. Along the way, Zenobia names the girl Lark, after the bird, for her ability to mimic its song.Running by night, hiding by day, the girls are pursued by Lark's pa and brothers and by ruthless slave catchers. Brightwell, another runaway slave, joins them, and the three follow secret signs to a stop on the Underground Railroad. When the hideout is raided and Zenobia and Brightwell are captured, Lark sets out alone to rescue her friends.20152016 Dorothy Canfield Fisher (DCF) Children's Book Award Master List Selection20152016 Great Stone Face Book Award Nominee,sponsored by Children's Librarians of New Hampshire2014 Best Chapter Books Pick, International Reading AssociationA Children's Book Council Notable Social Studies Trade Book of the YearA Children's Book Review Seven Middle Grade Booksfor African American History Month PickPennsylvania Young Reader's Choice Awards Nominee for 20162017Grades 35 Reading List for New Mexico's Land of Enchantment Book Award20162017 Young Hoosier Book Award NomineeA gripping historical novel . . . heartstopping, heartracing and eventually hearteasing.Library Voice"A gritty, engrossing tale.Slo Coast JournalFrom the Hardcover edition.
