It is story about a little boy's great grandfather , Lars Jensen, who was born in Denmark and who started a town of New Hope near Minnesota. Lar's family took a long journey from New York where they had arrived first. One day their wagon wheal broke, and Lars took a chance and settled in that area. It was a perfect area for a settlement and now it is a town. I think this book is about taking the chances life gives you eve though sometimes those are disguised as misfortunes. One just does not know a blessing in disguise sometimes; it takes a leap of faith to see what comes out of it. And it takes hard work! ( ) This book was really enjoyable because it took one immigrant and showed how his effort and work turned into a town step by step. It was carefully broken down into a story that was easy to grasp for children and really helped to show how every person makes an impact on the world. I think this is an excellent book for children in classrooms or simply as way to explain the importance of generations past and and future and our connection to each other. This book is about a boy who asks his father about a statue, and the grandfather explains the story of lars who came to America. While in America he contributed a lot to the people. This book was just ok for me because it really did not have a catching kind of topic to it. The book just kind of explained the history of this man and it really did not capture me as a reader. I think we can use this book to show how many people pioneered to America to start a new life. This talks about a man named Lars who changed what was land into a fast growing town. He gave hope to the people and soon many families were starting their new life. This book can just help children see how America was a land of opportunity.
