Here's the summary from the book:
It's 1860, and 11-year-old Elijah is a first-generation freeborn child. His Canadian town of Buxton serves as a haven for runaway slaves. When the town's corrupt preacher steals money from a citizen who has been saving to buy his family's freedom, Elijah sets off for America in pursuit, in this powerful new novel by a Newbery Medalist.
