CeeCee
Underground Railroad Cinderella
The Cinderella story is retold through the lens of the Underground Railroad in this inspirational picture book about legacy, courage, and hope. CeeCee is not her real name, but it’s what the Townsend family calls her on the plantation where she works. Forbidden from learning with the Townsend daughters, CeeCee teaches herself in secret and soaks up stories from Binty, the cook. One story is not a story at all, however, and an unlikely prince appears to whisk CeeCee safely to the North.
