“Told in alternating chapters that skip between Louis in 2004 and Lejzor in 1939, the book is at its best describing life in Poland, Lejzor’s confusing trip to Brazil, and his reunion with his father, who years earlier went ahead to make a place for his family. Kids will be taken with the history, which may lead them to learn more about their own family stories. The attractive color and black-and-white interior art, much better than the line drawings that often appear in middle-grade fiction, add interest.”
