Overview

When Jimmy visits his Grandpa in New Hope, he always asks to hear the story of Lars Jensen. In 1885, the Jensens came to America to make a new start. While they were traveling, their wagon's axle broke. The Jensens stopped to repair it, looked around...and decided to settle right there. Lars Jensen was the founder of New Hope -- and Jimmy's great-great-grandfather! New Hope is "the archetypal immigration story....Many kids will want to go from here to their own family stories of coming to America (Booklist)".
