Caught in the Rebel Camp: Introducing Frederick Douglass

Set during the early days of the Civil War, a young boy named Danny Sims yearns to join the Fifty-Fourth Massachusetts Infantry but is hindered by his age and a lame foot. Instead, he is assigned as the caretaker for Colonel Shaw's horses, a role he takes seriously. When he inadvertently finds himself inside a Confederate fort, Danny discovers a plot that could endanger his regiment. Faced with the challenge of escaping and delivering a warning, he must prove that even a boy with a disability can play a crucial role in the fight for freedom.
