Publisher's summary

Ellis Angels On The Move: Making A Difference in Brooklyn is the continuing story of Ellis Angels: The Nurses of Ellis Island Hospital. Nurse Angie Bosco and the ladies-in-white continue their work, caring for newly-arrived immigrants at Ellis Island. However, 1925 finds Nurse Angie Bosco leaving Ellis Island, moving to a section of Brooklyn called Williamsburg. There, she begins working closely with Dr. Abraham Goodwin, establishing the Nativity Settlement House and Health Clinic. Before Angie begins her journey, she meets with Lillian Wald, the founder of the New York Visiting Nurses at The Henry Street Settlement House. Lillian teaches her the importance of establishing trust with the residents in the neighborhood. As Angie “settles” in Williamsburg, she lives at a nearby church convent, and quickly immerses herself into the culture and the customs of the diverse community. She connects with Visiting Nurse Maureen O’Shaughnassey and her long-time friend, Nurse Adeline Ferme’. Nurse Angie and Doctor Abe begin to have many unanswered questions about the mysterious activities of their neighbors. They slowly uncover answers, and learn the vital contribution a settlement house can make in helping the immigrants achieve their American dreams. In the process, they achieve their own dreams, as well.

Proud to be a Nurse!

I loved this! The history mixed in was beautifully done. I didn't like the virtual voice narration because it missed pronounced some words. For example, the word Polish. Because I knew the story was talking about someone speaking the Polish language, I could follow the story but the virtual voice would pronounce "polish" as in nail polish. The natural deflection and tones were missing. However, the "voice" was pleasant. The details in the story were vibrant and I could "see" what the author wanted to convey. This series makes me want to return to visit Ellis Island and Lady Liberty because now I can appreciate it even more!
