The fictional diaries that put DEAR AMERICA on bestseller lists are now available in paperback in the boxed DEAR AMERICA Library Collections.



Each of the four books in this box set offers a different perspective of immigrating to the United States -- that of an Irish girl sent to work in the Lowell, Massachusetts mills; a Polish girl who comes to live in a western Pennsylvania mining town; a Jewish girl who moves to New York City with her family; and a Finnish boy who settles in Minnesota.
