Payment in Full by Henry Denker


 In a time when people are being unkind to those different from us whether religious or political or race, Payment in Full  by Henry Denker is a refreshing read.

Like the Rosens, let's look beyond someone's ancestry or beliefs and remember the Golden Rule to treat others as we would wish to be treated.

From the cover:

It is 1930. America is in the depths of the Great Depression, and in the home of David and Rebecca Rosen things aren't too bright either. For this devout young Jewish couple have just learned they can never have a baby of their own. All their dreams of family, of a life filled with a child's laughter, are over. Then one day they meet Elvira Hitchins, a little black girl - eight years old and alone in the world. And suddenly it seems that dreams may come true after all, and in totally unexpected ways.
