In a child's world of moral behavior and social propriety, a young girl is witness to the presence of two other children -- runaway slaves. From Hallie's father, the decision is clear. The law is the law and he doesn't want trouble. From another neighbor, she is told, "thou has a conscience, child." Soon enough, Hallie makes a decision to exercise that conscience and misdirects the slave catchers -- doing what she indeed, knows to be correct. A Good Night for Freedom is an invaluable tool for parents and teachers to open discussions about good and evil, no matter what other folks have to say!
