In Bridge to America, Fivel and his family are in Poland. His father is in America trying to get money for the rest of Fivel’s family to come to America. One day Fivel is playing and he sees Cossacks who are fighting to get control of the road. He runs down the road screaming to his brother Benyomin, "Cossacks! Get home!" When Benyomin finally heard him, he started running home and almost got caught by a Cossack. Want to find out if Fivel’s family gets to America? Read Bridge to America to find out! by Jacob, age 10, Maryland
I saw the 1:25 minute video on the book and and believe the book will instill important values of appreciation of what they have and the importance to keep Torah values even when it is difficult.
