Black Beauty, Young Folks' Edition Anna Sewell This is the story of the horse Black Beauty, told by himself. And why would a horse tell his own story? It is because he wants you to hear "from the horse's mouth" (as the grownups say) what it is really like to be treated as a horse. Sometimes he is treated well. Then his story is happy. Sometimes, though, he is not treated well. Black Beauty thinks that humans should know what that is like for a horse! He also wants you to know how wonderful it is to be treated well again.

This historical exploration of the Green Book offers “a fascinating [and] sweeping story of black travel within Jim Crow America across four decades” (The New York Times Book Review). Published from 1936 to 1966, the Green Book was hailed as the “black travel guide to America.” At that time, it was very dangerous and difficult for African-Americans to travel because they couldn’t eat, sleep, or buy gas at most white-owned businesses. The Green Book listed hotels, restaurants, gas stations, and other businesses that were safe for black travelers. It was a resourceful and innovative solution to a horrific problem. It took courage to be listed in the Green Book, and Overground Railroad celebrates the stories of those who put their names in the book and stood up against segregation. Author Candacy A. Taylor shows the history of the Green Book, how we arrived at our present historical moment, and how far we still have to go when it comes to race relations in America.
