Description
Eleven-year-old Summer and her older brother, Rosco, each have a "silent thunder"--a desire rumbling deep in their hearts. Summer wants to learn her alphabet, while Rosco wants to fight for his country and freedom. However, it is 1862, and they are slaves on a plantation, where these desires are illegal and dangerous. But these two siblings are determined to fulfill their dreams.
