Set against the wide-open skies of North Dakota in 1905, A Sky Full of Song is a tender and powerful middle-grade historical novel about resilience, family, and finding your voice.
After fleeing persecution in the Russian Empire, eleven-year-old Shoshana and her Jewish immigrant family begin a new life on the prairie. Shoshana delights in the wild beauty of the plains and the chance to forge a new identity in America. But tensions with her beloved sister leave her searching for answers about who she is and where she belongs.
Through challenges and change, Shoshana learns that her family’s difference is also their greatest strength. By listening to the music in her heart and embracing her traditions, she discovers the truth in an old saying: all beginnings are difficult.
A moving story of heritage, courage, and hope, this beautifully written novel will stay with readers long after the last page.
