Pink and Say
Pink and Say is a children's book written and illustrated by Patricia Polacco. It was first published in 1994. The story is about two boy soldiers who meet each other in the battlefield during the Civil War. One of the protagonists, Pink, is a white male soldier who is wounded from battle. Desperately trying to escape his unit, he is saved by a black male solider named Say. Say carries him back to his Georgia home where he and his family were slaves. While the frightened soldier is nursed back to health under the care of Pink’s mother, Moe Moe Bay, he begins to understand why his new found friend is so adamant on returning to the war; to fight against "the sickness" that is slavery.
