Etje, the oldest girl in a family of seven children living in a small fishing village in the Netherlands, faces a heart-rending problem. It is the late 1800's and her papa has decided to take the family to America where there is plenty of work and opportunity. But Etje's dearly loved grandmother wants Etje to stay with her in Holland. After much deliberation, Etje's papa allows her to stay behind with her Beppe, and that choice leads to events that form the heart of the story. This beautifully illustrated story book for ages 6-10 is sure to be treasured and remembered by children, teachers, parents and grandparents.
