This was the case for a little girl named Allis, who lived in the slave quarters of a Louisiana plantation in the old south. The only thing that made life bearable for the child was listening to her mama talk at night about a glorious place called Heaven that they would go to someday after all of Master's cotton fields had been picked. As she listened, Allis was filled with an intense longing for a life where there was no pain or sorrow...no back-breaking work from sunup to sundown or the sting of a whip. While the little girl knew she would never be free in this life, Mama had instilled in her a belief that a better world was coming. Clinging to that hope, Allis toiled under a scorching summer sun alongside her mama, daydreaming about the day when she would leave the plantation for good. In the child's mind, it couldn't come soon enough.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46382836154519,"sku":"9798765260852","price":1279.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798765260852.webp?v=1768777102","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/leaving-the-plantation-9798765260852","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
