Sojourner Truth
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
I loved book Sojourner truth. And I think Sojourner it is the best book I have read! I think Sojourner Truth was a fearless character Sojourner Truth was a slave because she was black. One day Sojourner Truth escaped. The man found her but he could not get her. And when she grew up the man sold her son. SO they went to court and won! She also had great courage. Be sure to read this great book!
Great photographs and text reveal a different way of life.

I used this book with a first grade class during black history month. The text is understandable for young minds and the pictures are beautifully illustrated, easily keeping the attention of a young class. The only drawback is some of the language used to describe the whipping of slaves seemed harsh; caution should be used with sensitive children. Otherwise, this book is very helpful and perfect for use with the primary grades.
