My journey on the underground railroad

Men, women, and children often had to walk hundreds of miles to safe houses, usually at night, and stay in cramped quarters until it was safe for them to keep moving. Readers learn what it was like to travel on the Underground Railroad through the eyes of a child escaping slavery.

\"In 1848, thirteen-year-old Emily Edmonson, five of her siblings, and seventy other enslaved people boarded the Pearl under cover of night in Washington, D.C., hoping to sail north to freedom.
