Our current history curriculum recommended reading this book during a specific unit. During lunch for the past week I read aloud this book to my sons. Kathryn, the narrator & the author, shares about her Norwegian's family's adjustment to the U.S. in San Francisco. Her aunts, uncles, her many siblings, and her family's boarders provide amusing and captivating stories. My sons enjoyed witnessing how an immigrant family acclimated to a new culture.
*Highly recommend for older elementary and older.
-I own this book (my copy is old and very fragile).
Considerations: one uncle is accused of drinking away his money (but he doesn't), lying, stealing
