The woods are dark and dangerous, but the North Star shines bright — and a woman known as Moses is leading people to freedom. This is the incredible story of Harriet Tubman, who was born enslaved, escaped to freedom, and returned to help others like her, first by escorting them on their own journeys north, and then joining the Union Army as a spy and military leader.
This Step Into Reading Level 4 book provides an easy-to-read, page-turning account of Harriet Tubman's life — from her childhood in slavery to her years as a conductor on the Underground Railroad to her later work as a suffragette and as a spy in the Civil War. This remarkable true story brings to life one of America's greatest female role models.
