Here they were free to set up an open market, sing, dance, and play music. They were free to forget their cares, their struggles, and their oppression. This story chronicles slaves' duties each day, from chopping logs on Mondays to baking bread on Wednesdays to plucking hens on Saturday, and builds to the freedom of Sundays and the special experience of an afternoon spent in Congo Square."--Provided by publisher. 000741304 5211_ $$aAges 4-8. 000741304 586__ $$aNew York Times Best Illustrated, 2016. 000741304 586__ $$aCaldecott Honor, 2017. 000741304 586__ $$aCharlotte Zolotow Award, 2017. 000741304 650_0 $$aAfrican Americans$$zLouisiana$$zNew Orleans$$xHistory$$vJuvenile literature. 000741304 650_0 $$aAfrican Americans$$zLouisiana$$zNew Orleans$$xSocial life and customs$$vJuvenile literature. 000741304 651_0 $$aCongo Square (New Orleans, La.)$$xHistory$$vJuvenile literature. 000741304 651_0 $$aNew Orleans (La.)$$xHistory$$vJuvenile literature. 000741304 655_7 $$aStories in rhyme.$$2lcgft 000741304 7001_ $$aChristie, R.
