Sensitively written, this story of the discovery by a family that their old farm house once was used as a station along the Underground Railroad paints its tale with a warm understanding of the day-to-day dangers and the unappreciated heroics of both escaping slaves and the Underground Railroad stationmasters. Set in contemporary Indiana, the book delightfully allows the young people in the story to take possession of the tale even as their grandmother, Nanny, slowly unwinds her story. A great read for young people and parents alike. Nick Schenkel, Library Director, MSLS
