Book Review by Ron

        A great book to read is Journey to America , by Sonia Levintin.  I feel that way because there is a lot of action and emotion.

  The book is about a Jewish family that is trying to escape Germany during the 1940s to get to America.  The family faced many emotions leaving their home.  They were sad to leave their home, family, and friends, but they knew that if they stayed in Germany they could be killed.  There is plenty of action in the book. Like the time the family is on the train and a soldier asks, ''Everyone on the train who is Jewish , stand up.'' The family stood up and the soldier told the conductor, ''To stop the train.''  He then , gets off of the train with the family and searches them  and lets them get back on.

        I recommend this book to everybody.  So if you like action and emotion you have to read Journey to America.
