Doll Hospital #03: Glory's Freedom: A Story Of The Underground Railroad

Paperback (Scholastic Paperbacks Jan. 1, 2003)
The 3rd book in the Doll Hospital series tells the dual stories of Glory, a doll owned by a slave who traveled to freedom via the Underground Railroad, and modern-day sisters Rose and Lila.

Sisters Rose and Lila, ages 10 and 7, are spending the year with their grandmother (who runs a doll hospital) while their parents are working out of the country. Their grandmother has a special power to communicate with dolls, and to tell their stories.

In this book we meet Glory, a doll who is given to a slave girl named May by Arabella, the daughter of a plantation owner. Glory then accompanies May on her journey to freedom. Years later, Glory is discovered by the new owners of an old house that, unbeknownst to them, was used as a stop along the Underground Railroad.
