Interesting and adventurous

Review by Maya

A Sky Full of Song is full of adventure. In the beginning, Shoshanna, the main character, moves from the Russian Empire to North Dakota. In North Dakota she lives on a farm with her family. When she goes to school, she’s not sure if she should show or hide her Jewish identity. I loved this book because Shoshanna perseveres through lots of challenges. If you like historical fiction this is a great book for you!

A Sky Full of Song

Review by AviRog

I loved this book! It had a lot to do with Jewish culture. It is about a Jewish family from Ukraine who moves to the North Dakota prairie. It is written in the perspective of a girl named Shoshanna. It is a very intense book.

A Sky Full of Song

Review by basetree123

This book was amazing. It has a perfect understanding of feeling different because you’re Jewish and is so realistic that I could picture myself in the story. It’s really an amazing book, and I hope that when it gets selected for an option to choose again, that a ton of people choose it, because those people will definitely benefit.
