Arnold Gragston was a slave who helped hundreds of other slaves escape to freedom. In this book, you can read his true story, told in his own words. You can also read a funny story that tries to explain why men are strong but women can still get what they want. Did you know that even long ago some people got hooked on things that were bad for them? The story called Hooked is an old African story about addiction. The five stories in this book are exciting and fun to read, and, after you have read them, you will know more about Africa and African Americans.
