Julius Lester Books: To Be a Slave

Lester, J. (1968). To be a slave. Los Angeles: Puffin Books.

For my Julius Lester selection, I chose To be a Slave. This story is a Newberry Honor book. In this novel, Lester describes the life of a slave through first hand accounts. These are true recollections of what it was like to be a slave in America.

Other Books by Julius Lester:
- From Slave Ship to Freedom Road
-Gaurdian
-Day of Tears
-Lovesong: Becoming a Jew
