(2) K-3 Illustrated by Alix Delinois. Mumbet was a slave in Massachusetts during the Revolutionary War. Talk around her owners' table about freedom from England led Mumbet to a lawyer and then to her eventual freedom--and the freeing of all Massachusetts slaves. Woelfle brings Mumbet to life as a strong, smart person; using a vibrant acrylic palette, Delinois shows both humor and strength on her face. Reading list, websites. Bib.
