Saara's Passage by Karen Autio

Here's a new book by my friend Karen Autio. It has an absolutely stunning cover, which for the life of me, I can not get to reproduce here...so check out the SonoNis website to see it for yourself.

ANNOUNCING THE RELEASE OF
Saara’s Passage
Historical Novel for Children / Sequel to Second Watch
by
Karen Autio

ISBN 1-55039-168-2


“What is the purpose of my life?”
That’s a big question for any age, but especially for twelve-year-old Saara Mäki.
After surviving the Empress of Ireland shipwreck, she is trying hard to forget her horrifying experience. Saara roller skates with her best friend, enjoys her new baby cousin, and can’t wait to star in the school play!
But as the First World War looms, tuberculosis strikes her family, and Saara’s next passage takes her into entirely unfamiliar waters.

Congratulations, Karen!
