review:
'Harriet Tubman' by Mª Isabel Sánchez Vegara with illustrations by Pili Aguado is part of the Little People, Big Dreams series of picture books.
Araminta "Minty" Ross was born into slavery. Her early life was rough and inspired her to do something about the way things were. She was helped to escape her life, changed her name, and helped others escape on the Underground Railroad.
This is told with colorful illustrations. Because her early life was so hard, it may open up questions with young readers. This isn't a bad thing, and we should be willing to discuss hard things with our kids. Harriet Tubman used her hard experiences and it propelled her into action. The lesson is clear and told in a simple way for the young.
I received a review copy of this ebook from Frances Lincoln Children's Books, Quarto Publishing, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
