About This Book

When Lily€™s sister is born prematurely, the doctor sends the tiny baby and her mother to Coney Island€™s famed incubator clinic. Lily and her father also move to Coney Island, where they live with Samuel, the woodcarver who makes the carousel horses. Set in turn-of-the-century Coney Island, this beautiful story skillfully depicts the traditions of Jewish immigrant woodcarvers, who played an important part in the history of the American carousel.
