From Anna (Anna Solden #1)

Author: Little, JeanPart of a Series: Anna Solden

Moving is never easy, especially when you’re a little 9-year-old girl moving from the tumult of living in Nazi Germany to Canada in the 1930s. And if you’re clumsy and your older brothers and sisters all call you “Awkward Anna” as well, it’s even worse. In award-winning writer Jean Little’s poignant novel, From Anna, readers are sure to be touched by Anna Soldens’s struggles with her new home in Canada, the unfamiliar language of English, and the realization that, in fact, there is a reason for her being such an awkward child. When it’s discovered that Anna needs glasses and that her clumsiness is actually the result of being visually impaired, Anna’s life changes completely. Suddenly her brothers and sisters see Anna in a new light and try to make amends for being unkind.
