After reaching freedom, Douglass became an abolitionist, orator, journalist, and one of the most famous freedom fighters of all time. Excellent history of black American's rise by Frederick Douglas.The life of slave & black are shown in this book. This book is an informational text about the life of Frederick Douglass. The life of Frederick Douglass is told in narrative form and I believe that this makes it more engaging for children, rather than simply digesting facts about the life of Frederick Douglass. It can be analyzed similarly to fiction texts as students look for character traits, plot setting, problem, and solution. This is also a great way to complement and supplement fiction texts about slavery, as it helps give a more complete picture of slavery. Children can see that even though African Americans were slaves and treated as less than human, they had hopes and dreams just like anybody else. Each day they fought for their lives and for their freedom. Frederick Douglass, also serves as another example of someone who went to extraordinary lengths to seek the power of reading because he knew it was his ticket to freedom.
