Uncle Tom's Cabin: Young Folk's Edition, Harriet Beecher Stowe

Uncle Tom’s Cabin—Young Folk’s Edition

By Harriet Beecher Stowe
Level 5
Review:

Published in 1852, Uncle Tom’s Cabin had an immense impact on the nation and the eventual abolition of slavery. The book is also a great story that shows the realities of slavery while also showing how love and faith can overcome all trials. This version was written for a younger audience by Stowe herself and does not contain inappropriate language like the full version. There are two instances that could be considered taking God’s name in vain, but I felt that the people were truly referring to God.
