{"product_id":"runaway-the-daring-escape-of-ona-judge","title":"Runaway: The Daring Escape of Ona Judge","description":"A powerful poem about Ona Judge's life and her self-emancipation from George Washington’s household.\n\nOna Judge was enslaved by the Washingtons, and served the President's wife, Martha. Ona was widely known for her excellent skills as a seamstress, and was raised alongside Washington’s grandchildren. Indeed, she was frequently mistaken for his granddaughter. This poetic biography follows her childhood and adolescence until she decides to run away.\n\nAuthor Ray Anthony Shepard welcomes meaningful and necessary conversation among young readers about the horrors of slavery and the experience of house servants through call-and-response style lines. Illustrator Keith Mallett’s rich paintings include fabric collage and add further feeling and majesty to Ona’s daring escape.\n\nWith extensive backmatter, this poem may serve as a new introduction to American slavery and Ona Judge's legacy.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0374307040\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: 4EKQOV002YNS_ns\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Shepard, Ray Anthony\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
