She heard about places and things she had never known about before. Then she made a special quilt, a map quilt. People told her about places and then she would add these places onto the quilt. When the quilt was finished, they used it as a map. Read on to find out if she goes to the North.
I like this book because Clara never gives up. She keeps working when it’s their free time. She works hard on the quilt.
I thought the book was very interesting. This book reminds me of Henry’s Freedom Box, because he goes to the North and a whole lot of people go to the North using the quilt Clara made.
One other thing I like about this book and why I picked it is because I really like African American history. I like when slaves try to go to the North.
I recommend this book to kids in first grade through fourth grade. Kids who like African American history should read this book.
