(Nondenominational) "Tapping into the most powerful interest on the planet-the hunger to know who we are and where we come from.... Greatest story...for young and old." - Jeff Gallup, TV producer Discover the 1880s tale of Anna Anderson, a child living in Sweden with her mother and her sister, Ida. The happy family doesn't have much. Unable to afford passage herself, Anna's mother puts the girls on a boat to the United States, hoping they will have a better life without her. Because Ida has contracted work in Idaho, the sisters separate in America and young Anna continues by train to another state where an aunt is supposed to meet her. Little Anna arrives alone in an unfamiliar near-empty train station late at night-but her Aunt is not there-she never got the letter telling of Anna's arrival. Unable to ask for help in English, Anna prays that her Heavenly Father will send someone to help her-someone who speaks Swedish. The answer to Anna's prayer goes beyond what she would have imagined. This children's biography touches on a powerful hunger-the yearning for family and a place to call home.

(Biography, nondenominational) "Tapping into the most powerful interest on the planet--the hunger to know who we are and where we come from.... Greatest story...for young and old." - Jeff Gallup, TV producerDiscover the 1880s tale of Anna Anderson, a girl living in Sweden with her mother and her sister, Ida. The happy family doesn't have much. When they embrace a new faith, the women are persecuted and Anna's mother has trouble finding work. Unable to afford passage herself, the girls' mother puts them on a boat to the United States, hoping they will have a better life there. The sisters separate in America because Ida has work in one state and Anna's female sponsor lives in another. Little Anna arrives alone in an unfamiliar train station late at night--but her host is not there to meet her as arranged. Unable to speak English, the child prays that her Heavenly Father will send someone to help her--someone who speaks Swedish. The answer to Anna's prayer goes beyond what she would have imagined.
