Ann Fights for Freedom: An Underground Railroad Survival Story by Nikki Shannon Smith
5.0
A suspenseful historical story of persistence for young readers! LOVE the illustrations. Like the additional facts and suggested activities in the back matter, too. This whole book is really well done. Nikki Shannon Smith gives an authentic but still age-appropriate and accessible portrayal of slavery for young readers.
When Ann finds out her family is about to be torn apart, she convinces her parents to run away, even though they don't have a conductor and no one can tell them where the first station on the Underground Railroad is. Along the way, Ann learns that good and bad comes in all colors and discovers a deep inner-strength that will lead her family to freedom.
