Copper Sun

Copper Sun was a great book to read, I was always reading the book when I had the chance. Copper Sun really opened my eyes and got me looking in a whole different way. I didn't know that much about slavery, till I read Copper Sun reading it made me feel really bad for the African Americans with slavery. They had to deal with it everyday; they didn't have any say whether or not they can be slaves. They had to deal with being slaves or they could escape and run south. I thought it was really smart of Amari, Polly, and Tidbit to hide when they were running. They cared for one another, and they didn't let anything get in there way when they were running south. By reading this book it tells you a lot about the authors ancestors and you learn more by reading it.
