How to inspire the kids? Read to them real stories about brave people standing up against the bad of the world.

In this book, it’s the real story of how Oberlin, Ohio sheltered runaway slaves and even fought against the Fugitive Slave Act. Thirty-seven men were charged with helping a slave escape and spent three months in jail - that seems like a good story to inspire courage and bravery.

Just over here reading lots of picture books and redeeming my lack of history knowledge... one good accidental book treasure at a time.
