Gittel and her mother were supposed to immigrate to America together, but when her mother is stopped by the health inspector, Gittel must make the journey alone. Her mother writes her cousin's address in New York on a piece of paper. However, when Gittel arrives at Ellis Island, she discovers the ink has run and the address is illegible! How will she find her family? Both a heart-wrenching and heartwarming story, Gittel's Journey offers a fresh perspective on the immigration journey to Ellis Island. The book includes an author's note explaining how Gittel's story is based on the journey to America taken by Leslea Newman's grandmother and family friend.

America? Raisa asked.

Yes, Gittel answered, and you can write

back and tell me how Frieda likes living

with you. Gittel turned to Mama, who was

standing in the doorway, wiping one of

her eyes with the worn white handkerchief

she always kept in her pocket. Can t

we take Frieda with us? she asked for the

hundredth time.

No, Gittel, Mama replied, also for the

hundredth time. We cannot bring a goat

to America. Now come inside and set the

table. The sun is about to set, and it s time

to light the candles for

Shabbos
