The Story of one family\'s journey north during the Great Migration starts with a little girl in South Carolina who finds a rope under a tree one summer.
Newbery Honor-winning author J.
But for three generations, that rope is passed down, used for everything from jump rope games to tying suitcases onto a car for the big move north to New York City, and even for a family reunion where that first little girl is now a grandmother.
She has no idea the rope will become part of her family\'s history.
