Praise for FREEDOM CROSSING

"Intrigue and tension light the dim passages and secret hiding places throughout this page-turner. Laura has returned to her western New York farm after a lengthy stay with a beloved aunt in Virginia. She quickly discovers that her own home is a stop on the hated Underground Railroad. Her brother and a childhood friend have become conductors. Like the golden strands in Laura's braid, themes of home, family, and friendship are intertwined with a story of courage and suspicion."--Children's Literature
