Librarianjk recommends Feivel's Flying Horses



Feivel's Flying Horses
by Heidi Smith Hyde

Summary: A Jewish immigrant who is saving money to bring his wife and children to join him in America creates ornate horses for a carousel on Coney Island, one for each member of his family.

This is a wonderful historical fiction picture book. It is appropriate to discuss immigration and Jewish traditions after reading this book.
