(3) K-3 In a picture book for older readers, Keara, an Irish immigrant, and Stefan, a Polish immigrant, live at opposite ends of a dreary nineteenth-century mining town. As children, following their families' warnings, they each shun the other ethnic group; but as young adults, they meet and fall in love--to the horror of both families. Soot-filled ink and watercolor illustrations accompany this look at how prejudices grow, and how they can be overcome.
