像你一样勇敢 作者:Jason Reynolds
Genie’s summer is full of surprises. The first is that he and his big brother, 厄尼, 第一次离开布鲁克林去弗吉尼亚的乡下和他们的祖父母一起过夏天! 第二个惊喜是杰妮发现他们的祖父是盲人. 吓坏了的, 精灵不停地问爷爷他是如何隐藏得这么好(除了戴着超酷的雷朋眼镜)。.
How does he match his clothes? Know where to walk? Cook with a gas stove? Pour a glass of sweet tea without spilling it? Genie thinks Grandpop must be the bravest guy he’s ever known, 但他开始注意到他的祖父从来没有离开过房子——从来没有. 当他发现祖父总是消失的秘密房间时——一个充满了鸣禽和植物的房间，几乎就像被从里到外拉了出来一样——他开始怀疑他的祖父是否真的那么勇敢.

Cora is a slave on a cotton plantation in Georgia. Life is hell for all the slaves, but especially bad for Cora; an outcast even among her fellow Africans, she is coming into womanhood—where even greater pain awaits. 当凯撒, a recent arrival from Virginia, tells her about the Underground Railroad, they decide to take a terrifying risk and escape. 事情没有按计划进行——科拉杀死了一个试图抓住她的年轻白人男孩. Though they manage to find a station and head north, they are being hunted.
