Skipping Stones Honor Award, Skipping Stones Magazine
A post-Civil War story about a young boy who journeys tirelessly to reunite with his beloved mama.
"Come morning, the folks take to the road again, singing songs, telling stories, and dream-talking of the lives they're gonna live in freedom. And I follow, keeping my eyes open for my mama."
Gabe's story is one of heartache and jubilation. An enslaved child freed after the Civil War ends, Gabe sets off to find his mother who was sold during the war. Keith D. Shepherd's illustrations--influenced deeply by the narrative work of Thomas Hart Benton--fervently portray Gabe's struggles and emotions in this tale of resilience and love.
