"Twelve Travelers, Twenty Horses" by Harriette Gillem Robinet tells the compelling story of a group of African American children during the era of the Great Migration in the early 20th century. They embark on an adventurous journey from the rural South to the bustling streets of Chicago, propelled by dreams of opportunity and freedom. Each child has their own hopes and fears, reflecting their unique backgrounds and aspirations. Together, they face challenges along the way, learning valuable lessons about friendship, resilience, and the pursuit of their dreams as they navigate a changing and often difficult world.
