Meet Kirsten: An American Girl by Janet Beeler Shaw
4.0

I think Meet Kirsten may be one of my favorite American Girl books. It's very tender and captures such a pivotal moment in an immigration story. The book is full of excitement and hope, while still carrying weight for how frightening and heavy a journey like this would be.

HOWEVER! I am CONFIDENT that Sari did not need to be left in the painted chest. Surely someone had a pocket she could have ridden in?
