Through detailed accounts of real heroes like Harriet Tubman and William Still, kids will learn how the Underground Railroad wasn’t just about escape but about fighting for a better future.Packed with powerful lessons about standing up for what’s right and working together to overcome obstacles, this book will inspire young readers to explore the past and think about the changes they can make today.
