Seeking a 1960s children’s book (possibly Scholastic Book Services) about a girl (an orphan?) who goes to live with relatives whose house is a station on the Underground Railroad. One of the former slaves they help is named Phoebe. The Emancipation Proclamation is signed at the end of the story, and Phoebe and her mother are able to appear in public with the girl.
Stump the Bookseller
New format, same book stumper solving.
I read this! It was called Voices in the…Dark? Night? Something like that. I think the author’s name began with BR…Bright, maybe?
I’ll come back if I remember more!
Kelly’s post led to… ‘Voices in the Night’ by Bacmeister, Rhoda (Warner), 1893-
Publication date 1965
Topics Underground railroad
Publisher New York : Scholastic Book
That is the one I was thinking of…I hope it’s also the one the original poster is searching for. Thanks, Gill!
