Moses: When Harriet Tubman Led Her People to Freedom
One book that I thought what was really interesting and educational was this book about Harriet Tubman. This is the story of a corageous strong women who beat many odds and escaped from slavery. Although she had a lot of tough times ahead of her she did all she could to help her self and eveyone else she knew who was affected by the harsh times of slavery. She walked for months, hid in holes, and ate very little but she knew that the end result would be well worth it. I really liked this book because for children it will introduce them to a time in history that wasn't so fair. I had always heard the story of Harriet Tubman and the underground rail road but this book re introduced the subject matter to me and Ilearned so much more. I love history and for other children who love learning about things in the past also this book is perfect!

I remember learning about Harriet Tubman when I was in elementary school and learned very little in high school, or at least as much as I can recall. I think I will definitely give this book a try so I can refresh my memory and learn some new things as well. The only question I have is who wrote the book?
