Dear Toby,
   I'm replying the whole group because I missed your original post.  I just
received a book from Junior Library Guild, it is by Katherine Lasky - I can't
remember the whole title (I'm at home) but it begins "Marven and the..." It
relates the true story of her father Marven Lasky, son immigrant parents
living in Duluth, who was sent to  liive in a French Canadian logging camp to
escape the flu ravaging the city post WWI.  I have read it to my second
graders and they love it!!  Excellent author's note gives background and
photographs.  The book is beautifully illustrated by Kevin Hawkes.
