Reviews
"Olaudah Equiano's story is one that everyone should read & know, and I can't think of anyone better than [Catherine Johnson] to tell it" – S.F. Said "Expertly researched and written, accessible and absolutely vital" – Sophie Anderson "Johnson’s lively, lightly fictionalised account of Equiano’s life makes gripping reading for 9+" – The Guardian "Meticulously researched, richly imagined and beautifully written … [Johnson's] nuanced approach will lead to thought-provoking discussions, and her engaging style means the book will fly off the shelves" – Reading for Pleasure and Progress "An incredible story of survival and freedom … recounted here as a powerful historical novel … The narrative is fast-paced and immediate – replicating the constant unpredictability of Equiano’s experience. [Johnson] doesn’t shy away from the brutality he experienced, but her words are carefully chosen for young readers." – Film Stories, 'Children's Book of the Week'
