Sofia is nine years old. She and her family immigrated to the U.S. from Italy. Sofia had some trouble at Ellis Island and didn't get to rejoin her family for a while. She later contracted polio and has to use a crutch to walk.
Part of the story deals with Sofia and her friend Maureen as they get ready for and go out on Halloween. Another part of the story deals with Sofia and others working on clothing for a rich woman.
Basically, it's sort of a tidying-up third book in the series with it being more about Sofia's daily life than anything majorly historical.
