FREE: The Book Is Called Elijah of Buxton

The listing, The Book Is Called Elijah of Buxton has ended.

Eleven-year-old Elijah lives in Buxton, Canada, a settlement of runaway slaves near the American border. Elijah's the first child in town to be born free, and he ought to be famous just for that--not to mention for being the best at chunking rocks and catching fish. Unfortunately, all that most people see is a "fra-gile" boy who's scared of snakes and tends to talk too much.

Now it's up to Elijah to track down the thief-- and his dangerous journey just might make a hero out of him, if only he can find the courage to get back home.
