Debut author Amina Luqman-Dawson pens a lyrical, accessible historical middle-grade novel about two enslaved children’s escape from a plantation and the many ways they find freedom.

Under the cover of night, 12-year-old Homer flees Southerland Plantation with his little sister Ada, unwillingly leaving their beloved mother behind. Much as he adores her and fears for her life, Homer knows there’s no turning back, not with the overseer on their trail. Through tangled vines, secret doorways, and over a sky bridge, the two find a secret community called Freewater, deep in the swamp.

In this society created by formerly enslaved people and some freeborn children, Homer finds new friends, almost forgetting where he came from. But when he learns of a threat that could destroy Freewater, he crafts a plan to find his mother and help his new home.

Deeply inspiring and loosely based on the history of maroon communities in the South, this is a striking tale of survival, adventure, friendship, and courage.

The narrator was very, very good. The story is fascinating, and we learned about a facet of history we hadn't known before. The story did seem a bit choppy at times.

I enjoyed Ada and her naïveté while understanding how terrifying this era in history was. I listened to audio but picked up the book to help me keep track of the characters. The ending had me rooting for the kids and crying happy tears.

Adventurous reimagining of resistance

This is the book our country has been waiting for. This is the book our youth deserve. The author mixes, historical fact, suspense, joy, sorrow and beautiful humor to look at slavery through a completely new lens. The audio book definitely does this book justice.

This book is an exhilarating emotional rollercoaster and excellent entry point for discussing lesser known histories, heroines, heroes and freedom fighters involved in Americas complicated, heartbreaking slave trade.
