About this product

Product Information

"There ain't no words right enough to explain feelin' free." On a dark Texas night in 1863 Midnight Son escapes from the plantation where he has lived all his life. In constant fear of bounty hunters, he hides in trees during the day and travels by night until he makes it across the border into Mexico. Free from slavery, Midnight finds work as a ranch hand and soon learns the ropes of a cowpoke. But as exciting as the job is, Midnight must face life-threatening situations everyday--like leading a team through a twister--in order to protect his herd. Denise Lewis Patrick explores the physical and emotional experiences of a young cowboy who is coming to grips with his past, learning to accept the racial tensions around him, and ultimately embracing the goodness he has found in others.

I bought 3 of these books, one for each of my kids. 2 of the books arrived as shown in the photo and the third book looked totally different. I would not have purchased if I knew they would not all look the same. Quality of books is good.
