Re: [ha-Safran] Resources on Jews during European Exploration
Artscroll published a book for youth in 1986, The Exiles of Crocodile Island, by Henye Meyer. The description on Amazon says it is a story of a community of children torn from their homes by the Inquisition and their defiant struggle to keep their faith. The ISBN number is 0899067727.

Re: [ha-Safran] Resources on Jews during European Exploration
I agree that although the Jewish Pirates of the Caribbean is an excellent book the reading level and content is far more suitable to middle and high school. Although if you can hold of the following book, The Jewish Traveler: Hadassah Magazine's Guide to the World's Jewish Communities ad Sights 1994, edited by Alan M. Tigay you will find great info of Jews across Europe and even current times information.

Re: [ha-Safran] Resources on Jews during European Exploration
Michelle, I searched our catalog and did not find much on this for that age group. (There are various things about the Inquisition, but I am guessing you don't want that.) Here are two: 1. The Jews Settle in New Amsterdam by Grand, Samuel Story of the first Jews to settle in the U.S. 2. The Other 1492 -- Jewish Settlement in the New World (YA book, but can be read by 4th graders in excerpts) Finkelstein, Norman H. Describes the causes, events, and aftermath of the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492. Good luck!

[ha-Safran] Resources on Jews during European Exploration
Dear Hasafran Community, I have a request from a teacher to find materials on the 3rd-4th grade reading level about Jewish involvement in European exploration, Jewish life in Europe during the time of exploration, and Jewish involvement in exploration of North and South America.
