Judie Angell
Original Publication Date: 1985

Historical Fiction
Basic Summary: Rose immigrates
to the US Russia Eastern
Europe at age 10 in the
1890s. It is the story of her growing up
in difficult circumstances in New York City
What I Remember About the
Book: I remember really liking this book.
I loved historical fiction, so this one was perfect for me. I remember most that she got married really
young, and had a baby. She went to
English classes.

Wait. (Um, yes, I actually waited until

happen.
