A young girl undertakes a long, harrowing journey to find a new home, only to discover that finding her place is going to be harder than she imagined. An incredible story about immigration, resilience, and family.
At the turn of the century, Anna Mathilda DeFehr, known as Tillie to her friends and family, sets off on a life-changing journey from Europe to America. Immigrating with her Mennonite family, Tillie braves the open sea, a long train from the shining New York harbor to the rolling plains of Oklahoma, and the strange new world she finds herself in.
As her family journeys from the cramped and crowded steerage of a ship to the bustling crowds of Ellis Island, then again to settle in a quiet community that doesn't understand her way of life, Tillie faces countless challenges: Learning a brand new language. Adjusting to life in a sod house. Confronting the elements and unsuitable living conditions. And, most of all, finding out how on earth she can call this place her home.
This historical fiction story explores how one girl's faith, hope, and love for her family can propel her through a storm of obstacles to claim her rightful place within her own heart. With allies like Julius, a book-loving new friend, and Crazy Wolf, a member of the local Arapahoe tribe who introduces her to a new world, Tillie learns that home is something you build-it's who you are and the people you belong to.
A captivating tale of the might of innocence to break barriers and adapt to change, The Girl from Korn inspires young readers to embrace their cultural roots while exploring the beauty of discovery in brand new places.
