Living on a plantation during the time of slavery, Addy Walker and her family must take life-threatening risks to gain the freedom they deserve.
When the fear that Addy could be sold away from her family arises, she and her mother escape north to Philadelphia where African Americans are free. But when she is judged by everything from the quality of her clothes to the color of her skin, Addy discovers her new life is still filled with prejudice.
Days become brighter when Addy goes to school for the first time and learns how to read and write. But the afternoons and nights remain lonely without her father, brother, and sister by her side. Although she may be slowly adjusting to her new life, Addy worries and wonders if there is anything she can do to reunite with her family.
“I wanted children to see African American people as part of strong, loving families, caught up in slavery, doing what they had to do to survive.”
—Connie Porter, author of the Addy series
Addy is taught early that there’s no room for hate when there’s love in your heart—and there’s no greater love than that of family. Together, the Walkers face challenges most of us will never endure, proving to girls that life may be tough, but so are they.
