Summary
The inspiring story of Sojourner Truth begins as young Isabella is being sold at a slave auction. How did she overcome the crushing difficulties of slavery to become a bold crusader of national renown? Author Anne Rockwell provides the answers in this engaging and authentic narrative of Sojourner Truth's transformation. Also included: Renee Joshua-Porter performs Sojourner Truth's most famous speech "Ain't I a woman?", as well as Truth's account of her visit with President Abraham Lincoln. Two hymns are included as well, one that Truth wrote and often sang and her favorite hymn. Great for middle school and family listening too.
