Copper Sun is the epic story of a young girl torn from her African village, sold into slavery, and stripped of everything she has ever known-except hope.
Slave traders invade Armari's African village and she is dragged to a ship bound for the Carolinas. Bought by a plantation owner, Amari befriends a white indentured servant named Polly and struggles to hold on to her memories, in this Coretta Scott King Award-winning novel.
"Action-packed, multifaceted, character-rich."
