Depending on her age group and reading level, the American Girl books about Addy might be appropriate. Also, I remember these from my youth but don't know if they still write them or if you can still get them, but there used to be a sort of "American Diaries" series that were decent (It would be like, "The Oregan Trail Diary of Fictitious Girl). I don't specifically remember any non-white ones (I only remember reading the Oregon Trail, Civil War and Mayflower ones, but I know there were TONS), but I'm sure there were some.
Does Huck Finn count? I read that in elementary school, and there are definitely some lessons to be learned from it (and from people's reactions to certain terms in the book).
