Twelve-year-old Clyde Thomason's older brother is a guard on the Freedom Train, which is carrying the Bill of Rights and other documents throughout the country in 1948, but Clyde is also learning about rights and freedom as he is saved from a beating by an African American boy, and later returns the favor when men in their Atlanta suburb decide to show the "Nigras" their place.

This book is fast-paced and full of action. It has short chapters and one simple representative illustration at the beginning of each chapter. At the end of the book, the author has included a historical note about the real Freedom Train of the 1940s, the historical licenses she embraced in writing the story, her inspirations in writing it, and three historical photographs of the Freedom Train. This book is recommended for school and public libraries because of the historical picture of the 1940s South that it presents, as well as the important lessons within it. ( )
