Born into slavery, Belle had to endure the cruelty of several masters before she escaped to freedom. But she knew she wouldn't really be free unless she was helping to end injustice. That's when she changed her name to Sojourner and began traveling across the country, demanding equal rights for black people and for women. Many people weren't ready for her message, but Sojourner was brave, and her truth was powerful. And slowly, but surely as Sojourner's step-stomp stride, America began to change.Binding Type: HardcoverAuthor: Andrea PinkneyPublisher: Jump at the SunPublished: 11/01/2009ISBN: 9780786807673Pages: 32Weight: 0.96lbsSize: 11.24h x 8.84w x 0.45dAward: Georgia Children's Book Award - NomineeAward: Charlotte Award - NomineeAward: Jane Addams Children's Book Award - Honor BookReview Citations: Kirkus Review - Children 10/15/2009Publishers Weekly 11/02/2009 pg. 51Booklist 11/15/2009 pg. 43School Library Journal 12/01/2009 pg. 99SLJ's Best Books 12/01/2009 pg. 35Horn Book Magazine 01/01/2010 pg. 105New York Times Book Review 03/14/2010 pg. 15Hornbook Guide to Children 01/01/2010 pg. 174 - Superior,Well Above AverageMulticultural Review 08/01/2010 pg. 64Accelerated Reader Quiz #/Name: 135431 / Sojourner Truth's Step-Stomp StrideReading Level: 4.2 / Interest Level: Lower Grade / Point Value: 0.5
