A compelling memoir of a young girl who lost her childhood to slavery

Shyima Hall was born in Egypt to a desperately poor family. At the age of eight, her parents sold her into slavery to a rich family. There, Shyima had to serve her captors for up to 18 hours per day. Two years later, they illegally moved her from Egypt to California.
 
A neighbor realized something wasn't right, and made an important phone call. Shyima's freedom was close!
