The Patchwork Path: a Quilt Map to Freedom
Bettye Stroud
"An exciting story about a girl and her father who escape slavery. . . . Works well as a story and also as a lesson in African-American history." ? SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL
Now that Hannah?s papa has decided to make the run for freedom, her patchwork quilt is not just a precious memento of Mama ? it?s a series of hidden clues that will guide them along the Underground Railroad to Canada. A fictionalized account of a fascinating oral history, THE PATCHWORK PATH tells the story of a two of the thousands who escaped a life of slavery and made the dangerous journey to freedom ? a story of courage, determination, and hope.
