Sweet Clara and the Freedom Quilt

By: Debrah Hopkinson
Realistic/Historical

This book is a great read when studying slavery and the under ground railroad. Student get and insight to life as a slave and how hard it was for the African Americans who were victims of slavery during this time period. It also teaches students about people coming together for a common cause and how one should never give up on their dreams despite what other tell them. This book would be wonderful for the classroom or to use at reading time.
