    Harriet Jacobs (1813 or 1815 March 7, 1897) was an African American lady born into bondage in Edenton, North Carolina, who was sexually harassed by her enslaver. When he threatened to sell her children if she did not submit to his lust, she hid in an extremely small crawl space under the roof of her grandma's house, so deep that she could not get up in it. After remaining there for 7 years, she finally managed to run away to the Free North, where she was reunited with her children Louisa Matilda and Joseph and her brother John S. Jacobs. She found work as a nanny and came into contact with abolitionists and feminist reformers. Even in New York, her freedom was in jeopardy until her employer could pay off her rightful owner.During and immediately after the Civil War, she, along with her daughter, went to the Union-occupied parts of the South, organized aid, and founded two schools for fugitives and freed slaves.Brief SummaryAfter seven years in the attic, Harriet finally flees by boat to the north. Benny's stopover with Aunt Martha & Harriet is reunited with Ellen, who is now nine years old and lives in Brooklyn, New York. Harriet is dismayed that her girl is still being held in virtual bondage by Mr. Sand's cousin Mrs. Hobbs. She fears that Mrs. Hobbs will return Ellen to the South, putting her forever out of Harriet's reach. She finds work as a nanny for a New York family, the Bruces, who treat her very kindly. Dr. Flint continues to pursue Harriet and she flees to Boston. There she is reunited with Benny. Dr. Flint now claims that the sale of Benny and Ellen was Invalid, and Harriet is afraid that he will enslave them all again. After a few years, Mrs. Bruce dies, and Harriet spends some time with her children in Boston. She allocates a year in England caring for Mr. Bruce's girl, and for the first time in her life, she appreciates immunity from racial bias. When Harriet came back to Boston, Ellen goes to boarding school and Benny has shifted to California with Harriet's brother William. Mr. Bruce remarries, and Harriet takes a position caring for her new baby. Dr. Flint dies, but his daughter Emily writes to Harriet to claim ownership of her. The outlaw Slave Act is passed by Congress, making Harriet extremely vulnerable to re-enslavement and kidnapping.Emily Flint and her husband, Mr. Dodge, reach New York to grab Harriet. Harriet hides, and the new Mrs. Bruce offers to buy her freedom. Harriet declined to be bought and sold one more time and plans to follow Benny to California. Mrs. Bruce buys Harriet anyway. Harriet is devastated to be sold and angry at Emily Flint and the whole slave system.Note:- We are offering this book at a 90% discount as a promotional activity.

    Originally published as a two-color edition in 1979, Clovis Crawfish and Etienne Escargot was an immediate hit with fans of the French-speaking animals of the bayou. This edition, with full color and black-and-white illustrations by Scott R. Blazek, brings the familiar characters to life.Rain falls steadily on the banks of the bayou, turning the dirt to mud and causing the water to rise. But Etienne Escargot has barely noticed the rain-he has laid a mound of tiny, pearl-white eggs and is overwhelmed by his good fortune. Too late, he realizes he is marooned on a mud pile in a growing puddle. Can Clovis Crawfish think of some way to save the unborn snails? Will the fast-pecking Waldeaux Woodpecker be able to make a pirogue before the rain washes the eggs away?Join Clovis and his friends for another bayou adventure, complete with French words, phrases, and even a song by well-known composer Denis Dirt Dauber!

    “It’s not often that you read a fantasy that feels as epic and original . . . Clever, well-paced, and full of intrigue, it’s a superb read.” —James Dashner, #1 New York Times–bestselling author 
     
    All his life, Nels has wanted to be a knight of the kingdom of Avërand. Tall and strong, and with a knack for helping those in need, the people of his sleepy little village have even taken to calling him the Knight of Cobblestown. 
     
    But that was before Nels died, murdered outside his home by a mysterious figure. 
     
    Now the young hero has awoken as a ghost, invisible to all around him save one person—his only hope for understanding what happened to him—the kingdom’s heir, Princess Tyra. At first the spoiled royal wants nothing to do with Nels, but as the mystery of his death unravels, the two find themselves linked by a secret, and an enemy who could be hiding behind any face. 
     
    Nels and Tyra have no choice but to abscond from the castle, charting a hidden world of tangled magic and forlorn phantoms. They must seek out an ancient needle with the power to mend what has been torn, and they have to move fast. Because soon Nels will disappear forever. 
     
    “Woven reads like a lost classic that was somehow just rediscovered. It has the feel of a comfortable, familiar blanket that’s somehow been newly-made of the brightest, most original material possible, and it is pure pleasure to read.” —James A. Owen, bestselling author & illustrator of Dawn of the Dragons 
     
    “This brisk adventure from first-time authors Jensen and King is a charming quest tale in classic fantasy tradition.” —Publishers Weekly
