Wings UP! over Ellis Island

I was so glad to receive this video from a new fan who just finished reading Sailing Back To Ellis Island. He read the book in anticipation of his upcoming class trip to this National Park. I hope that his exploration of this historical place is enriched by the tales from real immigrants contained in the book.

For fans who haven’t read the book — they can buy it at the Ellis Island bookstore.

For fans who want to try Wings UP at home:

WINGS UP is the sign the Fairies make when they greet or congratulate each other.

To make the Wings UP sign: hold both your hands in front of you, palms facing toward you. Cross your hands over each other and link your thumbs. Then waive your fingers.
