Taking with her only her faith, she must creep through woods with hounds at her feet, sleep for days in a potato hole, and trust people who could have easily turned her in. But she was never alone. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In lyrical text, Carole Boston Weatherford describes Tubman's spiritual journey as she hears the voice of God guiding her north to freedom on that very first trip to escape the brutal practice of forced servitude. Tubman would make nineteen subsequent trips back south, never being caught, but none as profound as this first one. Courageous, compassionate, and deeply religious, Harriet Tubman, with her bravery and relentless pursuit of freedom, is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Carole Boston Weatherford\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0786851759\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780786851751\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Little, Brown Books for Young Readers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.60h x 10.80w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e109416 \/ Moses: When Harriet Tubman Led Her People to Freedom\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Caldecott Medal - Honor Book\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Coretta Scott King Award - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Volunteer State Book Awards - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Capitol Choices: Noteworthy Books for Children and Teens - Recommended\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Best Books\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/15\/2006 pg. 23\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/31\/2006 pg. 78\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2006 pg. 81\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Review - Children\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2006 pg. 914\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2006 pg. 129\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBulletin of Ctr for Child Bks\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2006 pg. 148\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBlack Issues Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2006 pg. 35\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHorn Book Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2006 pg. 737\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBlack Issues Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2006 pg. 28\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Best Children's Books\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2006 pg. 22\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/11\/2007 pg. 17\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMulticultural Review\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2007 pg. 91\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2007 pg. 177 - Outstanding, Noteworthy In Style\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSLJ's Best Books\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2006 pg. 43","brand":"Carole Boston Weatherford","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44055159832831,"sku":"9780786851751","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6e1d35d8-34de-4592-a84c-060ebef084c5.jpg?v=1685034129","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/moses-carole-boston-weatherford-9780786851751","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
