- Synopsis
- Before Pa died, he told Everett--the only one of his sons born free--always to "dream big." To Everett, now thirteen, that means starting a new life out West, far away from the Tennessee farm where nothing grows but dirt. Out West, black pioneers are building new towns, safe from the Ku Klux Klan. Out West, freedom means something better than just not being a slave. Through their grandmother, the Webster cousins hear the story of their daring great-great-grandfather, a brave but headstrong boy, and the horse who helps him get "away West." For ages 8 and up, grades 3 and up.
