Is It Night or Day?: A Novel of Immigration and Survival, 1938-1942
From Goodreads:
It’s 1938, and to escape certain death at the hands of the Nazis, twelve-year-old Edith is about to move from the tiny German village she’s lived in all her life to a place that seems as foreign as the moon: Chicago, Illinois. And she will be doing it alone on a solo voyage across the Atlantic Ocean.
This dramatic and chilling novel about one girl’s escape from Hitler’s Germany was inspired by the experiences of the author’s mother, one of twelve hundred children rescued from the Holocaust by Americans as part of the One Thousand Children project. This title is a 2011 Bank Street – Best Children’s Book of the Year.
