Description

Born into slavery young Frederick dreams of the day he and his folks will probably be free. Yet until that day comes, his best escape is throughout the books he reads, which take him to worlds some distance from his own. When a menacing overseer named Covey sees that Frederick isn’t like the others, he sets out to “break” the young reader. But Frederick’s surprising response to Covey’s brutality is an act of courage that frees ceaselessly what no one can hold captive: his spirit. In his picture book debut, fine artist Cedric Lucas a hauntingly realistic portrait of a cruel era. William Miller follows up his critically acclaimed Zora Hurston and the Chinaberry Tree with a timeless reminder to readers of every age and backgrounds that freedom is something to never be taken with no consideration.
