FREEDOM TRAIN The thrilling story of Harriet Tubman, the Moses of her people, is told in a fascinating series of highly theatrical scenes that use dance, dialogue, and music of the period. Songs include "Follow the Drinking Gourd," "Steal Away," "Wade in the Water," "Good News, the Chariot's A-comin'," and many others still sung today. Freedom Train is the story of self-sacrifice, dedication and survival, laced with warmth and a sense of humor that celebrates the human spirit -- a universal story for all.

JUNIE B. JONES Dear First Grade Journal,
This is the bestest musical (that is a play all jumbled together with singing and dancing, I believe) ever, I tell you! It's got loads of funny songs, and it's based on a bunch of books this lady, Barbara Park, wrote about me and the things I do in first grade. I think I might like first grade after all!
Love, (but not the mushy kind)
Junie B.
