Críticas:
"As in his previous novels, Curtis is a master at balancing the serious and the lighthearted... His latest book is another natural award candidate and makes an excellent case, in a story positively brimming with both truth and sense, for the ability of historical fiction to bring history to life." -- New York Times Book Review "Here's a pre-Civil War history lesson wrapped in an adventure story." -- USA Today "Curtis has created a vivid setting that is easy to imagine. When the action begins, you'll want to race through the pages." -- The Washington Post * "This is Curtis's best novel yet, and no doubt many readers, young and old, will finish and say, 'This is one of the best books I have ever read.'" -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review * "Many readers drawn to the book by humor will find themselves, at times, on the edges of their seats in suspense and, at others, moved to tears. A fine, original novel from a gifted storyteller." -- Booklist, starred review * "This arresting, surprising novel of reluctant heroism is about nothing less than nobility." -- The Horn Book, starred review * "Curtis's talent for dealing with painful periods of history with grace and sensitivity is as strong as ever." -- School Library Journal, starred review "Elijah of Buxton is sure to become a classic -- for readers of all ages." -- BookPage "The Newbery Medal judges should just go ahead and put Christopher Paul Curtis on speed dial." -- The Christian Science Monitor "Curtis is a genius storyteller..." -- Detroit Free Press
Reseña del editor:
In 1859, eleven-year-old Elijah Freeman, the first free-born child in Buxton, Canada, which is a haven for slaves fleeing the American South, uses his wits and skills to try to bring to justice the lying preacher who has stolen money that was to be used to buy a family's freedom.

Descripción Mass Market Paperback. Condición: new. Mass Market Paperback. Eleven-year-old Elijah lives in Buxton, a settlement of runaway slaves in Canada, near the American border. He's the first child in town to be born free, and he ought to be famous just for that. Unfortunately, all that most people see is a 'fragile' boy who's scared of snakes and talks too much. But everything changes when a former slave steals money from Elijah's friend, who has been saving to buy his family out of captivity in America's South. Now it's up to Elijah to track down the thief - and his dangerous journey just might make a hero out of him, if only he can find the courage to get back home.
