○《自由之鸟》

Brother and sister Millicent and John are slaves1 on Simon Plentys plantation2. They have suffered3 a lot one after another. Their parents had told them old tales about how their ancestors4 had flown away as easy as a bird.

Millicent and John hold these stories in their hearts long after their parents are gone. “Maybe such a time will come for you，” their parents said. Then one day a mysterious5 bird showed up in their life. The bird transformed6 them and gave them the courage7 to escape8.
