The book I am reading is called "The White Lamb". Right now, the page I am at is page 93. What I had read was about Evaliz marrying David that they are preparing for it. Then, Evaliz is knitting things such as clothes for the baby. She had kept a secret from David because she can not say it to him, just yet. The winter is almost past that when David notices Evaliz condition. Now David thinks he would need a new job than teaching classes because it will not keep a family. Evaliz was thinking of going to Amerika ( Amerika is how they / the book spells it) , but David saying it is too far and Evaliz thinks he will always stay in Russia. The baby came out and they named him Theodore. Then, Evaliz is married, six years had gone by since their Theodore died. They have 3 other children, all girl: Elizabeth, four and one half, Nathalia, three, and Leah, one. The characters that was present in the pages I had read was Evaliz, David, Karlotta, Anna; Evaliz's brother Wilhelm's wife, and Grossmutter Volz, One quote that I read is "Maybe, we can go to Amerika?". This quote was what Evaliz said, when she told David that where they should go. One connection I have in my life is when my great- great- grandparents and family was living in Russia and they came to America. The book is very similar to my family of what they did when they was in Russia and came to America.
