Midwest Book Review - Small
Press Book Watch, Children's Shelf/May 1, 2005
Written
and illustrated by Marie Fritz Perry, A Gift For Sadia is the story of Sadia,
a young Somalia girl who left her African homeland and came to live in Rochester,
Minnesota. Sadia wonders if she can ever learn to speak English.
Perhaps the friendship of a wounded Canada goose can help. This beautiful drawn
and deftly told picture book story is especially recommended for young readers
ages 5 to 9 and would make a welcome and popular addition to school and
community library collections.
