Every single morning, the plantation bell dictates the lives of the enslaved workers. When the bell rings, Daddy gathers wood, Mama cooks, and Ben joins the others for another grueling day of work under the sweltering sun. The routine feels unbreakable, until one extraordinary morning when the bell rings and Ben is nowhere to be found.
Ben has run away.
Left behind, his family experiences a heart-wrenching mix of fear and sadness, but also a profound, enduring hope. They wonder if maybe, just maybe, Ben has made it North to freedom. This powerful and moving story honors the courage of those who sought freedom and serves as a vital reminder of the strength of hope and family bonds during the darkest of times.
