A lonely immigrant girl. A desperate prayer. An answer that changes everything. Discover the true 1880s story of Anna Anderson, a child living in Sweden with her mother and sister Ida. The family is poor but united-until circumstances force Anna's mother to send the girls by boat to America, hoping they will find a better life than she can give them. Because Ida has work waiting in Idaho, the sisters separate. Young Anna continues alone by train to meet an aunt in another state. She arrives late at night at a near-empty station-but her aunt is not there. She never got the letter telling of Anna's arrival. Unable to ask for help in English, Anna prays that God will send someone to help her-someone who speaks Swedish. The answer to Anna's prayer goes beyond anything she could have imagined. This children's biography-rich with faith, courage, and Christmas feeling-touches a universal desire: the yearning for family and a place to call home. Nondenominational. Perfect for ages 5-11 (kindergarten-fifth grade). Part of the Young American Immigrants series. Available individually or as a 4-in-1 bound collection, 4 Stories of Immigrant Kids: True Tales of Courage & Faith: Agnes's Rescue: The True Story of an immigrant Girl (Scotland)
