Follow the Drinking Gourd by Jeanette Winter
from Read Aloud with Mommy & Maggie · host Amanda Janay Frank
"Follow the Drinking Gourd" sounded like a simple folk song sung by slaves, but it was really a map to freedom--for hidden in the lyrics were directions to the escape route known as the Underground Railroad. In glowing paintings and simple text, Winter tells the story of one brave family who followed the drinking gourd north to freedom.
