Have you ever wondered what it would be like to fly, to soar above the clouds and out into the distance and the slaves below fly to the sky with you? Then this is the book for you! You have to have quite an imagination to really feel like your flying, but with this book anyone can achieve that feeling, like Sarah the main character! All you have to do is hear the magic words from Toby, and your off into the distance and free from slavery! This book is full of stories and folktale, used in South Africa. This book is really great! Trust me, you'll love it!

Opinion: 

This book is great! I like the riddles and rhymes they put in. It is written with a wonderful dialect.
