• Coretta Scott King Honor-winner Brenda Woods brings to life a chapter of American history that is seldom explored. Sally Harrison and her family are slaves on a plantation in Georgia. But when Master decides to sell Sally and her brother, the family escapes to seek shelter with a tribe of Seminoles who are rumored to adopt runaway slaves. After a perilous journey, Sally and her family find the Indian village. While her father and brother easily adjust to Indian ways, Sally can’t seem to find her place—the little songs she makes up don’t fit with her new life. Will she ever let go of the past and fully join the tribe? Reviewers praised Brenda Woods’s Red Rose Box saying: "A timeless universal tale about a young girl’s road to maturity. An impressive debut." (Kirkus Reviews.) Once again, Woods has written an evocative novel with an intriguing heroine.
