Sample Book Insights:
#1 The attention turned to her. She had tried to concentrate on the unfamiliar shapes of words, and distinguish between the voices. She had tried to stand still, but she was restless. She wished she was out there playing.
#2 The church service was long and tedious, and after it was complete, the women began their feast. They had been cooking for weeks, and the food was delicious.
#3 The next morning, the bride was given a new underdress. Then another, for warmth and volume. The main dress was a mass of soft white muslin edged in red. A necklace, corded black silk wound round with delicate gold chains, so long on her eight-year-old body that its two stubby gold crowns swung well below her waist.
#4 The slave girl, Wulé, walked alongside the bridal party. The second day, the groomsmen made their way to the bridal hut. The silence was deafening. The fourth day, the groomsman told her the story of the cat and the mouse.
