I had seen a documentary on the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire and was interested in reading this novel based on the history of that period. Very well written and does a good job of taking the reader into the experience of immigrants who came to this country for a better life. Poignant and well researched.

My 13 year old son who isn't a big reader enjoyed this book very much. I'll read it next.
Excellent story. Well written. I felt I knew the charaters and how they responded to the situation they were in. Interesting to find out about the beginning of Unions, especially to help opressed women.
My grandmother had told me much about the TriangleFfire and all in this book confirmed what happened. Only problem was not reading ahead to get to fire, but story held such interest that worked out OK
Summer reading for my daughter. She enjoyed it. I'm going to read it now!
Interesting story about sisters who try to come together, yet each have other viewpoints.
My daughter had to read this for her 6th grade social studies class and she really enjoyed it. I think it gave her a much clearer perspective on the history of the US.
simply love it!
I LOVE this book!! I read it before when I was in junior high school and I was recently thinking of it and thought I'd like to read it again. It was just as great as the first time I read it! It really deals with the struggles of coming to America and going through Ellis Island and making a life in early 20th century America. And it also has a gripping account of the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire (through a fictional character). I highly recommend this book!! )
Good book for children and adults who are looking to learn TOGETHER about the immigrant experience for Irish coming to NYC in the early part of the 20th Century. Good 2nd book to accompany others with similar material, namely "The LocketSurviving the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire" by Suzanne Lieurance. Once you read about what went on, you won't buy 21st Century items made in foreign sweatshops again.
