In this "searing work of historical fiction" (Booklist), Coretta Scott King Award-winning author Sharon M. Draper tells the epic story of a young girl torn from her African village, sold into slavery, and stripped of everything she has ever known--except hope. Amari's life was once perfect. Engaged to the handsomest man in her tribe, adored by her family, and fortunate enough to live in a beautiful village, it never occurred to her that it could all be taken away in an instant. But that was what happened when her village was invaded by slave traders. Her family was brutally murdered as she was dragged away to a slave ship and sent to be sold in the Carolinas. There she was bought by a plantation owner and given to his son as a birthday present. Now, survival is all Amari can dream about. As she struggles to hold on to her memories, she also begins to learn English and make friends with a white indentured servant named Molly. When an opportunity to escape presents itself, Amari and Molly seize it, fleeing South to the Spanish colony in Florida at Fort Mose. Along the way, their strength is tested like never before as they struggle against hunger, cold, wild animals, hurricanes, and people eager to turn them in for reward money. The hope of a new life is all that keeps them going, but Florida feels so far away and sometimes Amari wonders how far hopes and dreams can really take her.Binding Type: Paperback

This soap is a second line defense against itching due to allergies.
This is only the second thing my husband has asked me to reorder from Amazon. He was itching all the time, so I ordered this for him. It stopped the itching because when he ran out and started itching again, he told me to reorder it immediately. I use an allergen free detergent for washing our clothes because we both tend to have allergy problems. This is a second line of defense against itching from allergies since soaps and detergents tend to trigger ours. It would also be nice to cleanse your skin after coming into contact with poison ivy or oak. What I paid is worth it to me because the value is in not hearing him complain! There’s no unpleasant odor and it’s a good quality soap. I can’t speak to the moisturizing part because he doesn’t care about things like that, but his skin must be moisturized or he’d be itching again, lol. I’ll definitely keep buying it.
