His autobiography, published in 1789, was a bestseller in its own time. Cameron has modernized and shortened it while remaining true to the spirit of the original. It&#8217;s a gripping story of adventure, betrayal, cruelty, and courage. In searing scenes, Equiano describes the savagery of his capture, the appalling conditions on the slave ship, the auction, and the forced labor. . . . Kids will read this young man&#8217;s story on their own; it will also enrich curriculum units on history and on writing.<\/p>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.penguinrandomhouse.ca\/books\/23179\/the-kidnapped-prince-by-by-olaudah-equiano-adapted-by-ann-cameron\/9780375803468\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Kidnapped Prince<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From environmentalist and bestselling author Bill McKibben comes a hopeful, inspiring picture book celebrating the power of human cooperation and the beauty of life on Earth, beautifully illustrated by artist Stevie Lewis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13715,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"single-fullwidth.php","format":"image","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[44,81],"tags":[84],"class_list":["post-13714","post","type-post","status-publish","format-image","has-post-thumbnail","category-children","category-young-adult","tag-anti-racism","post_format-post-format-image"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 4.9.8 -
