Sojourner Truth was born during a time of slavery and discrimination. When she was 9, she was taken from her family and sold to another slave owner. Sojourner Truth was sold multiple times before she was encouraged to marry in order to increase the number of slaves. Sojourner Truth became the first women in the U.S. to win a lawsuit against a white man. She later fought against discrimination and believed that whites and blacks should have the same rights. The biography goes through the life of Sojourner Truth as a slave, what she did to get her freedom, and the actions she took to work towards ending discrimination in the U.S. I think the story of Sojourner Truth is very important in history, but the way the story was written didn't grab my attention that well. The different things that people had to do to fight against discrimination is very interesting to me. I wish the story would have went into more detail about that. ( )

The book speaks about the many struggles Sojouner Truth, formally known as Isabella, faced growing up as a slave. I think this was a great book with wonderful pictures depicting what the words were saying. I also think this is a great book to read to my future classroom especially if we are focusing on the times of slavery. There are so many great books about different people who spoke and acted out against slavery and I think it would be great if the students could research one person each, as well as present about them in front of the class.

My professor expressed some dislike of Adler’s work, and, after reading this picture book, I can see why. It is visually pleasant enough, but the writing is… bland, to say the least. The narrative structure is jerky, and the language is boring. While the story of Sojourner Truth is, certainly, important and inspiring, Adler’s dull writing manages to sap much of the enjoyment out of the story. I can’t, honestly, see holding the attention of a group of children with this book unless its recitation was accompanied by an interpretive dance. Even then, a few may doze off. It is a tragedy, really, because this book is not really “bad,” but I could not, in good conscience, recommend it to anyone for their classroom. ( )

I would read this book during black history month and also the success of a woman in this time frame. Sojourner raised money for African Americans during the civil war to help feed them and she also helped cared for slaves who moved to the North. I would want my students to learn that they are able to accomplish anything no matter what hurdles stand in the way. ( )

A biography of Sojourner from birth to death. This tells of her life and struggle being traded as a slave and discusses her work as a civil rights activists. I personally liked how this biography tells of the event in her life where she refused to sit in another spot on the streetcar. This reminded of the same situation Rosa Parks, several decades later. This would a for a great lesson on female social justice activist.

This would be a good book for a biography study for younger student, as it is an easy read. However, there is not a bibliography source, but there is an important dates page. ( )
