Molly’s Pilgrim
“Discover the true meaning of Thanksgiving right along with Molly, a Russian refugee. Molly doesn’t look like the other children at school and her English isn’t very good, making her the subject of much teasing. To make matters worse, her mother makes her doll for their Thanksgiving project look more like a Russian refugee than a New England Pilgrim. However, that tiny little doll is exactly what she needed to show her classmates that she is a modern day Pilgrim, too!”

Cornerstones of Freedom: The Story of Ellis Island by R. Conrad Stein
“Give Me…Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free…” Hope. That’s what a new life in America meant for millions of immigrants. they came to escape the poverty, overcrowding, and persecutions of their homelands. Thousands huddled together on their long trip across the Atlantic Ocean. Their first stop was Ellis Island, a center that processed more than 16 million people between 1892 and 1954. Here they were tested to see if they were fit to become citizens. It was here that some dreams were dashed to pieces. Would the immigrants be turned down and forced to return to Europe–or would they be permitted to enter the land of opportunity?
