Show way

The making of "Show ways," or quilts which once served as secret maps for freedom-seeking slaves, is a tradition passed from mother to daughter in the author's family. LeVar shares a picture of author Jacqueline Woodson with a quilt from her family, and also shares some of his family keepsakes. Kids talk about the connection they have to family keepsakes. A Jewish grandmother shares how as a youngster she survived the Holocaust, and why it's important to have her family know the story. LeVar and his family create their family tree. Review books - The kid's family tree book / by Caroline Leavitt ; What a family! / by Rachel Isadora ; Seven brave women / by Betsy Hearne.
