A collection of illustrated Bible stories that is truly unique Let My People Go, begins with Price Jeffries, a free black southern man who tries to explain slavery and its relationship to the bible to his daughter. He does this to show the similarity between African-American and Jewish history, and the ascendancy of spirit and desire for freedom of all oppressed peoples. Patricia and Frederick McKissack write a moving collection of stories from Creation to the Exodus. James E. Ransome won the 1995 Coretta Scott King Award for Illustration.
