Gittel's Journey: An Ellis Island Story by Lesléa Newman, Amy June Bates
4.0
I am jewish and I read many many books about the experience of being a Jew in different times especially during the nazi german reign and also Russian rule. This is a fine childrens book and it is based on a true story that happened in the writer's family.
The main person here is a child who has left Russia for its persecution of the Jewish people and taken boat to US to meet her uncle Mendel. Her mother couldnt go so she is very much alone. It is about a journey and about a child and about kindness
The drawings are just wonderful from someone other than the writer by Amy June Bates
