Based on the true story of an immigrant family, THE JOURNEY OF ELISA is a story of faith in the face of adversity for readers 8-12. In the story, Elisa travels with her family from Brazil, where her father is Swiss Consul, to Tennessee. The family endures tragedy and their faith is tested, but Elisa learns that even when we suffer great loss, our faith and God’s love comfort us and give us hope. Based on diaries from Nancy’s great-grandmother. Also available in French. (Part of the Immigrants Chronicles Series from David C. Cook, 2000)
