Copper Sun

The unimaginable cruelties of slavery, a young girl?s hopes for the future, the ferocious brutality of slave owners, and the surprising kindness of a select few are the focus of the 2007 Coretta Scott King Author Book winner, COPPER SUN. Fifteen-year-old Ashanti villager Amari is kidnapped from her village by slavers, and taken into a world where she is considered less than human. But a household upset enables Amari and an indentured servant, Polly, to escape. This is fast-paced, historical fiction at its best. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only.
