Anna And Solomon
By Elaine Snyder
Margaret Ferguson Books, 2014
Anna and Solomon takes a different approach to an information text. Told in a story format, children may really enjoy it being told this way. Written by Anna and Solomon’s granddaughter, Elaine Snyder tells the story of her grandparents’ long journey to America, and how they saved enough money and brought over their family before finally reuniting.
The illustrations are very realistic and inviting. This story would be a great one to read to children both during an information text unit, to show that not all information texts are like resource books, as well as during a unit about immigrants. This is a very positive story about hard work paying off.
