Celebrating a special event for his people, Kofi, the prince of a West African village, is horrified when he is betrayed, kidnapped, and sold into slavery in Massachusetts, in a story based on an actual slave narrative. Reprint.
Reviews:
An 18th-century African boy recounts his journey to slavery in America; in a starred review, PW said that the story "offers a deeply moving, Afrocentric perspective on the brutal inequities of American life in the nation's earliest years-and now." Ages 9-12.
