Moses is such an inspirational book and is the winner of two awards, the Caldecott and Coretta Scott King. The book describes Harriet Tubman's journey to Philadelphia, a place of freedom from slavery for her and later her family. My favorite parts of the book are the way the author uses different fonts and font sizes to communicate the different dialogues and the way it sounds like a song or free verse poem. The illustrations are so detailed and communicate the mood of the story very well.This book is related to diversity because it describes a turning point in American history when some of our citizens began to appreciate the differences of others, while not allowing those differences to mean inequality.
