Bookroo's summary
In a silent tale of courage, a Southern farm girl stumbles upon a runaway slave hidden in her barn. Startled yet moved by his plight, she faces a heart-wrenching decision: risk everything to help him or turn away. As the North Star guides his escape, her heart guides her actions. Will she find the bravery to defy the world around her? This poignant story of the Underground Railroad explores the unspoken bonds of humanity and the power of compassion in the face of fear.
