Summary
Julie's grandmother deflates many of her husband's tall tales about their journey from Russia to America and their life on Hester Street, in a 25th anniversary edition of a favorite immigrant story released with new illustrations.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: A flying goat, buttons the size of sleds, and a castle on Hester Street are some of the widely imaginative stories Julie's grandpa tells her about his journey from Russia to New York many years ago. But Grandma's no-nonsense memories are far different from Grandpa's tall tales.
This classic story, which reveals the immigrant experience with wit and warmth, won the Sydney Taylor Book Award when it was originally published with Linda Heller's own illustrations. Now, on its twenty-fifth anniversary, The Castle on Hester Street is given new life with Boris Kulikov's vibrant paintings.
