Reseña del libro "Ida's Witness: The True Story of an Immigrant Girl (en Inglés)"
(Biography) When young Ida contracts scarlet fever in 1880s Sweden, she almost loses her sight. After another brush with death, Ida learns that there is more than this life, disease has an end, and small miracles happen every day. With new faith, Ida leaves her mother and brother and sails with her sister to America for a better life--free from poverty and persecution. But she knows no English. How will she share what she's learned in a strange country?
