(Illustrated Biographies) Discover adventures spanning sixty years--telling the true stories of four children, each seeking a better life:
Agnes's Rescue (1856 Scotland/Ireland)
Ida's Witness (1888 Sweden)
Anna's Prayer (1888 Sweden)
Samuel Sailing (1916 South Africa)
All touch on a universal desire--the yearning for a family and a place to call home.
Young people can do hard things! These first-hand accounts--from the kids themselves--highlight determination, grit, and resiliency in the face of obstacles. Explore other countries and diverse cultures, plus online EXTRAS like making a family tree and naming modes of transportation.
Tapping into the most powerful interest on the planet--the hunger to know who we are and where we come from.... Greatest story...for young and old. - Jeff Gallup, TV producer
