    Illustrated in full color. An acclaimed author and an award-winning illustrator unite to create an enchanting conjure tale ideal for both folktale and African-American history collections. Mama Marina is willing to risk everything and use her conjuring powers to the utmost to free her daughter Sheba from the yoke of slavery. "Hooks's account of how Mama Marina manipulates her gift to free Sheba and Sheba's true love, Joe Nathan, is as absorbing as Ransome's accomplished art. Rendered in broad, textured strokes that nonetheless leave room for detail, his emotion-charged paintings depict sweeping panoramas and close-up portraits with equal success." --(starred)Publishers Weekly
