I Am Harriet Tubman by Brad Meltzer

5.0

I am Harriet Tubman tells the story of the life and work of Harriet Tubman. As an African-American woman, she faced all kinds of adversity, beginning when she was a child and was sold as a slave. Her life began to turn around when she decided to go against the people who aimed to oppress her and began working with the underground railroad to help other slaves get to freedom as she had done. This book is perfect when talking about civil rights, how African-Americans were treated as slaves, and why it is important to treat other people as equals. Like the other books written in this series, the words are easy to understand and the timeline is clear from start to finish, which makes them easy to remember also!
