Historical Fiction
The Blessing Cup follows a Jewish family in Russia during the war. When the family is forced out of their own country, they rely on the help of others, specifically Uncle Genya. This beautiful story of author Patricia Polacco's ancestors gives the reader an idea of what it was like for Jews in Russia as the war was starting. I rated this book a 5 out of 5 because of its unique illustrations, touching story, and the amount of historic and cultural information it shares with its reader.
