"Twelve year-old Zipporah (Zippy) Feldman is a Russian Jewish immigrant living with her family in a crowded tenement on Manhattan's Lower East Side in 1903. While Zippy faces the challenge of learning English and making new friends, her older sister Tovah fights to improve the working conditions of her sweatshop and struggles to hide her forbidden romance with a handsome Irish boy. When old traditions clash with modern ideals, family tensions begin to escalate. To save her family, Zippy must find a way to respect their heritage while following her own dreams of the future."--Container.
