This half term, we are looking at the text 'Henry's Freedom Box' by Ellen Levine. This book explores Henry's dreams of freedom from slavery and injustice. When his family are sold away from him, he risks everything to do what he knows is right.. He mails himself to freedom! This is a narrative account based on a true event, and has been a fantastic book to explore. Year 5 have been working hard to produce an excellent quality of writing, leading up to writing their own diary entry and biography about Henry 'Box' Brown's incredible tale.
