A middle-grade biography of the life of Harriet Tubman, chronicling her life from childhood to her continued fight for equal rights after the end of the Civil War.
A well written biography, it does a great job of explaining words and giving historical context to the time period. Great for older elementary and middle school readers. I liked learning about Harriet Tubman beyond the underground railroad and how she stayed active and involved. I was inspired by her perseverance and determination despite all her set backs.
Overall, a quick read, great for middle grade reading levels, that does a great job of covering the life of Harriet Tubman, though this telling has a more subjective slant, and I would recommend further reading for a more objective history.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
