Eleven-year-old Shoshana and her family flee from Russian pogroms to North Dakota, where land is available to those who are willing to farm it--even Jews. Shoshana loves the wild freedom of the prairie, and, at first, loves school, making friends, and learning English. But when she is bullied for being Jewish, Shoshana starts to feel like it might be easier to hide her faith, even in America. Only by listening to the music that's lived in her heart all along can Shoshana embrace the differences that allow her family to thrive and grow together in their new home.
