(Children's nonfiction) Eleven-year-old Samuel can barely contain his excitement to sail with his family from South Africa to live in the United States--then he contracts typhoid fever.
World War I has broken out. Samuel's parents have sold their business, their home--everything--to purchase passage on a freighter to the USA. Now their boy is in the hospital, and even if he lives, no ship will let him aboard for several weeks. Meanwhile, Atlantic crossings may not be possible for long.
Experience this family's heart-wrenching choice and its consequences through the eyes of the brave child who lived it. Stories of real immigrant children fascinate readers and transcend culture and time (35 pages/70 vintage images for children ages 6 - 11 years, 1st - 6th grades, ESL/ELL/ESOL/ESE).
See the story unfold with actual photographs of Samuel P. Martin plus 1, 000 read-aloud words adapted from his autobiography by award-winning author-illustrator and college media instructor Karl Beckstrand (Horse & Dog Adventures in Early California--don't miss Beckstrand's 60 multiracial books).
