Summary: The Captive
Comment: After the first 10 pages, I felt as if I could not stop. All of the African religions and action. I do feel bad for the characters in the book when they get kidnapped and sent to America. It was very sad when Kofi had to earn his own belongs back when some one stole it from him. When he escaped from the Browne's house and then they went to court I felt very happy for them and I felt bad for Tim because he had to go back. Read the book and find out the rest of the story.

Summary: you should read this book
Comment: This book is really good because Its about a son of a great Ashanti chief who is captured and sold to be a slave and its about how he tries to get back to his people and he meets 1 american slave called Joseph and another kid who is a british bound servant called Tim.The coolest part is when Kofi learns how to speak english because he can understand people and not make everybody frustrated.The worst part is when Kofi gts taken away to be a slave because he looses his freedom and can't do anything but work.
