Rosa is a slave but her owner is also her father and her fair skin means she can ''pass for white''. With the help of her husband Benjamin, she disguises herself as a young southern gentleman – and Benjamin''s master. In this guise, the couple flee the South, explaining away their lack of literacy, avoiding those they have encountered before and holding their nerve over a thousand miles to freedom.Inspired by the amazing true story of Ellen Craft who escaped a life of slavery through a daring disguise and won freedom for herself and her husband.Particularly suitable for readers aged 13+ with a reading age of 8.
