Product description

Review

Queen of Freedom drills down into the tenacity of the freed slaves and the cunning lengths they went to to live free ― Observer

Brilliant.. gripping, atmospheric and moving ― Guardian

Cracking illustrations, true life stories in the vein of the ladybird books but more substantial ... brilliantly written by proper writers ― Frank Cottrell-Boyce

About the Author

Catherine Johnson, Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, has written many titles for younger readers with a historical setting. Sawbones, a murder mystery set in eighteenth-century London, won the Young Quills Award for Best Historical Fiction 2015. The Curious Tale of the Lady Caraboo is about a cobbler's daughter from Devon who, in the early nineteenth-century, passed herself off as a Princess from Indonesia. Catherine is half-Jamaican and knows the Blue Mountains well.
