Description
A glimpse into the lives of young immigrants in America's early 20th century. This book offers a rare and touching account of what it meant to be a newcomer to the country, facing challenges such as crowded cities, scarce jobs, and hard work from a young age.
Newbery Medalist Russell Freedman shares the stories of children who had to sell newspapers, deliver goods, and labor in sweatshops. A poignant portrayal of the struggles faced by immigrant kids in America's early 1900s.
