(3) 4-6 In 1986, eleven-year-old Molly travels with her parents and brother to Israel for a month over the summer. She's nervous about meeting her extended family, including her maternal grandparents who don't speak English, but she comes away with a better appreciation of her Jewish heritage. Detailed descriptions highlight the beauty and diversity of the country, along with occasional discussions of its challenges and conflicts.
