Books by Blei: Chains

Chains
by Laurie Halse Anderson
Recommended by: Kaylee H.
This book is about a slave in the 1770's, during the Revolutionary War. The main character is named Isabel. She has a sister named Ruth, who gets sold - never to be seen again, and her parents are dead. She meets a friend who is also a slave. They are free of all their duties as slaves. They row themselves to freedom. My favorite character is Isabel, she is a dependent women and shows dignity and independence.
