Copper Sun Andrea Golden Published in 2006 by Sharon M. Draper By Sharon M. Draper

Intro: In A world of deception.. 15-year-old Amari’s heartfelt story begins in her native country of Africa in a village by the name of Ziavi. Her village is visited by a mysterious bunch of “white-skinned” people who invade their land and capture them for, to them, unknown purposes. When Amari’s family is brutally murdered, she realizes that she is in much more danger than she thought. Amari is forcibly set on a journey of hell, where only God knows the outcome.

Antagonist & Protagonist Amari  15-year-old girl from Africa who is taken captive from her home by white American men. Mr. Derby  Rich, slave owning white man of South Carolina who purchases Amari at a slave auction.

Amari’s Struggle… Amari is a victim of slavery in the 1700s. When Amari is forced to become a slave in America life becomes extremely difficult for her. She is sold to one of the richest men in California, Mr. Derby. There, Amari makes new friends, including a 15-year-old indentured white girl who has her own story to tell. While in America, Amari learns many positive and negative things. Living in a life of hell, Amari has two options: Stay with her owner and be repeatedly beaten, raped, and overworked; or escape to freedom. If her bold choice, what will she get out of freedom? The shocking, spine- tingling ending of the novel will surely cause many heads to spin when Amari’s fate is exposed.

Minor Characters Teenie & Tidbit Afi Afi is a slave who helps Amari on her way to the Americas. Afi provides Amari with information, courage, strength, and wisdom that will help Amari in the long run. Afi is close to Amari’s heart because she provides mother-like support.

Minor Characters Continued Besa Besa was to be Amari’s husband before they were captured. After their captivity, they were departed from each other. Amari continuously thinks about her long lost love throughout the journey. Mrs. Derby Mrs. Derby was unhappily married to Mr. Derby at age 18. Although she lives with wicked men in a hell house, she still manages to be fairly nice to the slaves on the plantation.
