Frederick Douglasss daughter tells her own story of segregation and triumph.

Rosetta, Rosetta, Sit by me! Thats what the white girls at Miss Tracys Female Seminary yell when Rosetta, Frederick Douglasss nine-year-old daughter, shows up on the first day of school. But things dont turn out the way she expects. Not only does she have to study in a classroom all by herself, but shes also kept apart at recess. Told in Rosettas voice, and illustrated throughout, this remarkable chapter book includes a biographical endnote; a time line; reproductions of a letter from Rosetta to her father and Frederick Douglasss newspaper, the North Star; and source notes.
