1) Audio Cassette Book More All-Of-A-Kind Family by Listen & Live Audio. Life in 1910s New York City is never dull for sisters Ella, Henny, Sarah, Charlotte and Gertie. Although poor, there´s always a penny for candy at the corner store, as well as free adventures at the local library or their papa´s junk store. Now Ella, a teenager, enters her first romance, and since their baby brother Charlie is growing older, he´s finally able to have a free adventures of his own!
One terrible day, however, as the sisters are distracted with watching a wedding party exiting the temple, little Charlie toddles in front of a horse and wagon. With the driver unable to stop, tragedy seems inevitable...except for the intervention of a brave young immigrant woman.
After saving Charlie´s life, Lena becomes an inextricable part of the family´s lives. It seems perfectly natural when she´s introduced to the girls´ bachelor uncle Hyman, who´s instantly smitten by the feisty independent woman.
But as summer and the couple´s wedding nears, tragedy strikes in the form of polio. Will Lena become the children´s aunt after all?
Along with their fun, there´s also a strong background of the family´s Jewish faith, which binds the community through good times and bad. No matter what happens, the girls know they´re backed by the familiar traditions and a rich heritage.
