ASBA Black Caucus Book Contest

Win a classroom collection of “Before She Was Harriet” books

The ASBA Black Caucus is excited to sponsor a book contest for classroom teachers in Arizona public district schools. Eight teachers across the state will be awarded a classroom collection of books based on the life of Harriet Tubman.

This biography in verse begins with a glimpse of Harriet Tubman as an old woman, and travels back in time through the many roles she played through her life: spy, liberator, suffragist and more. Illustrated by James Ransome, whose paintings for The Creation won a Coretta Scott King medal, this is a riveting introduction to an American hero.
