Forced to leave behind her beloved doll when her family leaves Germany during the Second World War, a young girl is delighted and amazed to find her doll years later in an American antique shop, in a story based on real-life events. Discovered the illustrator Claire (Chiara) A. Nivola at the Eric Carle Museum; Elisabeth is unfortunately out of print but fortunately available in libraries! This is Nivola's mother's story of fleeing Germany during WWII and being reunited years later in New York with the doll she had to leave behind, which she bought and gave to her daughter. This was a wonderful read-aloud for second and third grade; we read it during Jewish American Heritage Month (May). The somewhat old-fashioned illustrations suit the story, and young readers connect to the story of the doll, whether or not they have background knowledge about Nazi Germany. I liked this book because it shows dedication. Because, she loved her doll and she had to leave it but, she never forgot about it and then she even went back for it. It also showed stick together even in rough times. It shows that she stuck with trying to find her doll until she found the doll as an adult. This story takes place during WWII. It is about a little girl and her most prized possession, a doll named Elisabeth. The little girl and Elisabeth went everywhere together, they did everything together. One day the little girl's dog got a hold of the doll and she brought Elisabeth down stirs so her father who was a doctor could bandage the doll up. Everything changed and soon a Nazi soldier would stand by her door making sure only Jewish patients went to see her father. One night, the little girl's parents woke her up and the family had to leave quickly and told her she had to leave everything behind. She left everything, even her most prized possession, Elisabeth. Years later after moving to America, the little girl was now grown up with a family of her own, but she never forgot about her prized Elisabeth. One day the woman's daughter asked for a doll of her own and walking through the town the woman spotted it, a doll that looked just like Elisabeth. Upon closer examination she saw that it was Elisabeth, she could tell by the bit marks on the arm from her dog when she was a child. She bought the doll and gave it to her daughter, when her daughter grew up and had her own family, she then gave it to her daughter. A very cute book about being reunited and passing on a prized possession. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
