Description - A Slave No More by Judy Wolfman
Born into slavery in 1815, Henry Brown escaped to freedom by arranging to have himself mailed from Virginia to Philadelphia in a wooden crate-3 ft. x 21/2 ft., x 2 ft.-after 33 years of slavery. The trip took 27 hours during which he endured discomfort and pain. Henry became a noted abolitionist speaker and later a showman, and writer of his own autobiographical narrative, published in 1849 in Boston, which provided the core for this book. Judy Wolfman, retired elementary teacher, authored the Life on a Farm series; 40 scripted folktales and legends in How and Why Stories for Readers' Theatre; two historical fictions-Not My Time, the true story of a Holocaust survivor; The Long Escape! about Chinese immigrants smuggled to America in 1992; nine children's plays, and many magazine stories, articles and poems. She is a professional storyteller, public speaker, and conducts workshops on writing and storytelling. Brett Greiman, a graduate of the York Academy of Arts, is an artist, illustrator, and graphic designer. His paintings and murals can be found in private, museums, and corporate collections.
