Artful Artist for Flying Free: Corey's Underground Railroad Diary

This is a picture of Corey and Mingo.  Corey opens the package and finds his best friend in the box.  Corey is very excited to see his friend who escaped out of slavery.  This picture takes place on the U.S. side of the Detroit River, in Michigan.  This happen on page 78 in paragraph 1.  I drew this picture because of the bravery that Mingo showed when he ran away.  This show so much determination on his part to escape to freedom.  This part of the story really stuck out to me.   This is a very powerful part of the story that I thought should be drawn.
