The youth in my church love this book. It really put them in touch with Sojourner's historical journey; however, the story line was a little bit longer than I expected.

I read this through and learned a lot about this lady and her courage. I think it would be a little over the head of my 7-year-old.

I learned quite a lot from this book. I had heard about Sojourner Truth before, but this simple little book taught me a bit more.
