This children’s book (ages 8-12) is a fictional story about a German Family's journey in the mid 1760's. It follows as they move from their home to the Russian Volga River Colonies, and as their descendants live and prosper on the Volga. It ends about 1900 as their children's children leave the Volga to settle in America. The story line is much the same as in my series of 10 historical novels, but is written from a child’s interests and view. It is true as far as the dates and facts that we know about Wolgadeutscher (Volga Germans). You may wonder why I wrote this book. Simply, everything today is about ‘sanitized’ facts… just data that does not carry the emotion or feeling, the trial and tribulation, or success and failure in life. I hope this book helps the children see the true story, the real lives of our German-Russian Volga Ancestors… so those that came before, and what they did for us, will live on within us forever.
