Regan's Book Recommendation

I am recommending the book Unbound by Ann E. Burg. This book is about a family of slaves living in a cabin by the Big House. The main characters include Grace, Mama (Catherine), Uncle Jim, Aunt Sara, Thomas, and Willy. The story is told from Grace’s point of view. Grace is a 9 year old girl who is called up to be a slave in the Big House. When she gets to the Big House she meets Aunt Tempie, Anna, Jordan, Uncle Moses, Master Allen, and the Missus. They’re all slaves with Grace except for Master Allen and the Missus. In Unbound we learn how slaves had to live and what they had to go through daily. Unbound is a book that you don’t want to stop reading. Only half of the page actually has words printed on it so this is a very quick book to read. As far as I know, Unbound is a realistic fiction book. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys realistic fiction books about slavery without the heartbreaking aspect.
