Casper and Catherine Move to America: An Immigrant Family's Adventures, 1849–1850

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Angela M. Gouge & Angela M. Gouge. After young Hugh relays that a new classmate is "from another country," his dad is inspired to tell him about the Hasler family's immigration from Switzerland to Indiana in the 1800s. This nonfiction account is entertaining but not as exciting as the author, a Hasler descendant, clearly thinks it is. In her charcoal drawings, Gouge gets the mood right, if not always the proportions.
