Informative and engaging! It’s a great book for introducing kids to the history of Ellis Island and immigration.
Diksha Munjal –
A fascinating look at Ellis Island. The stories were compelling, and the details were insightful. It kept us both interested!
Ketan Hari Hazra –
Decent book. It covered the basics, but I felt like it missed some opportunities to delve deeper. I feel like it was alright for my child’s report.
Shashank Pratap Singh Chandel –
Pretty good. Some parts were boring. But, I did learn a lot, and I think it is a very important topic to learn about.
Nikhil Choudhary –
Informative but a little dense. I had to help my child through some parts. Not bad, but not a page-turner.
Sidhant Sripal –
Very well written! My child loved this book, and has been talking about it for days. This gets a huge recommendation!
Harsha Nimmakayala –
My son enjoyed learning about Ellis Island, but the book felt a bit dry at times. Still informative though. Worth the read!
Chhayank Kumar –
Good starting point for learning about Ellis Island. Could have more depth, but served its purpose.

It was a fine book, I guess. Nothing special, but it did the job. Not going to buy it again but it was decent.
Bharat Chandila –
This book sparked some great conversation in my class about family history and immigration. I plan to buy it again for future years.
Ankit Deore –
It’s okay. My daughter wasn’t super engaged. It could have used more engaging stories about individual immigrants.
Nitishree Bhansali –
Important topic, but delivery could be better. It felt a bit like reading a textbook. My kids didn’t enjoy it as much as I had hoped.
Akshay Kumar –
A perfect book to learn about family history and immigration. I have had so much fun reading with my child.
Khushbu Yadav –
The book felt a bit simplistic. Needed more information.

An excellent overview! Very well-written and easy to understand. My kids learned so much. I would purchase again.

A good introduction to a significant part of American history. Simple enough for my -year-old to grasp. Highly recommended!

My children appreciated learning about the experiences of immigrants who arrived in the US. This is a good conversation starter.
