Nathan's Song

Nathan's Song by Leda Schubert is based on the story of her grandfather.  Nathan was a Jewish boy who lived in Russia.  He loved singing and wanted to become an opera singer.  His family saved money, and Nathan headed for Italy to study.  Unfortunately, Nathan boarded the wrong ship-to New York!  Though he never got to Italy, Nathan was able to use his singing ability to earn money, eventually singing on Broadway.  An immigrant story I recommend for ages five to one hundred.
