Uprooted from their homes and torn away from their families, the men in the hull of the Amistad are chained together. At home, Sengbe was a father and a husband. But now, to those who have captured him and taken him from Africa, he is just a slave. Sengbe manages to free himself and the others on board. They gain control of the shipbut will they be able to take control of their destiny? This is a true story on a sensitive topic written especially for younger readers and skillfully told by fourtime Parents Choice Award winning author Barry Louis Polisar. Polisar has told the story of the Amistad slave rebellion, giving it a personal face and tackling his subject with compassion and understanding. He deftly explores a difficult subject in an illuminating and positive way, conveying what it is like to be unable to speak freely. Polisar subtly shows how speech can be a tool in the service of justice; when Sengbe and his fellow captives are unable to speak, that injustice comes across in the story just as strongly as the physical chains that bind them. This is an engaging childrens story and one that deserves to be told as skillfully as Polisar tells it. Susan Vaillant, Library Information Specialist
