Love Twelve Miles Long
Review
By Kirkus Reviews
Frederick Douglass’ mother imparts 12 lessons, one for each mile she walks on her clandestine nighttime visits to him. . . .
In this, her debut effort, Armand focuses on the positive aspects of maternal devotion and a mother’s dreams of greatness for her son. The full-page watercolor paintings capture the nighttime setting and depict a loving mother and child. . . .
Share this with young readers as a series of homilies on dreams and a family love strong enough to overcome any adversity.
