This book taught me what  a nine year old boy can accomplish with  the love and  spirit of  his family past and present, who are with him as he makes his way  from the cotton fields of the deep south to the freedom way up north and the  golden thread that binds him to his family, and keeps him safe as he makes this journey, alone,meeting people along the way teaching  him everything he needed to know along the way and showing him courage, hope,strength and eventually freedom..  I would love to see this book as required reading for all high school students.
