The most recent book I have finished is Harriet Tubman and the Underground Railroad.
It is about Harriet Tubman. She was born in Maryland on a plantation. When she was 17 a slave was escaping and she blocked the doorway when the Master was chasing the slave, so the Master took a rock and through it to her head. After that she would fall asleep when she wasn’t expecting it, in the middle of conversation, walking, and so on.
When she grew up she escaped and became free. She than went back and took more slaves to freedom. She did this for many years and finally went back to get her parents.
Harriet freed over 300 slaves from various plantations.
