Freedom’s Pen
by Wendy Lawton
Young Phillis began life in an African village as a curious and imaginative little Janxa. Then without warning Janxa gets captured by slavers and shipped to the New World with her father. She’s unable to fully comprehend the reasons for the inhumanity she witnesses on the journey. She soothes herself by clinging to the songs of the village storyteller.
