Annotation |
Set in Oregon, 1912. Miriam Josefsohn is supposed to live life as a pampered socialite, but would much rather work in the family print shop. When her father refuses to let her learn, she takes matters into her own hands and joins the surging women's suffrage movement. In the process, she discovers that a forgotten family heirloom - an intricate shawl with blue thread - has the mysterious power of transporting her to a different time, thousands of years in the past, with an entirely different struggle for women's rights. Will she be able to fight for the past, the present, and her future? For grades 6-9.
