Event Details

Our favorite stories entertained and educated us as children, teaching us about human nature, friendship and adventure. Today, these childhood classics have just as much, if not more, to say to us as adults. The books in this series reveal our society's most cherished visions of family life, and celebrate the power of the imagination to pass values and traditions on to the next generation.

Raised in Depression-era Mississippi, Cassie Logan learns strength and independence from her Black farm family - but now she must confront the harsh realities of racial hatred and the threat of the night riders.
