Moses: When Harriet Tubman Led Her People by Carole Boston Weatherford depicts Harriet Tubman’s initial escape from slavery and her mission to lead others to freedom as divinely inspired, achieved by steadfast faith and prayer. Carole Boston Weatherford frames the text in the book as an ongoing dialogue between Harriet Tubman and God. If this visually strunning book inspires you to know more about this courageous woman, Harriet Tubman: The Road to Freedom by Catherine Clinton is an excellent supplement. The long overdue Harriet Tubman: The Road to Freedom chronicles Harriet Tubman’s escape to Philadelphia and her experiences of being the first and only woman, fugitive slave, and black woman to work as a conductor on the Underground Railroad.

ireadkidsbooks I read kids books is what I do. It's just me, reading kids books and writing my thoughts. I have a M.Ed. in Children's Literature, so in my years of researching children’s literature, I’ve found that children’s literature is essential to the personal and academic development of all children because it is a window that not only opens, but also reflects the diversity of our human experience. More importantly, it lets young readers and readers of all ages know that children and people like them are worthy of being in books. If you have any questions, comments, observations, or if you just want to say hello, send me an email.
