She left that marriage after five years (1933 1938) and made her way to New York City with her infant son. Together, mother and son built a new life.

In this witty and insightful memoir, Peter Schrag meditates on the life of his mother, Ilse, who left Germany in 1933 to marry a German Jewish doctor in Lebanon. She left that marriage after five years (1933-1938) and made her way to New York City with her infant son. Together, mother and son built a new life.

At once a rumination on the problems a Jewish refugee family faces in difficult times, an observation of the mysteries of the mother-son bond, and a treatise about what it means to be an American, My Mother and Me is a remarkable family story.

Cute but a little stiff
These are cute and well made. I think the sole is a little too stiff for babies learning how to walk that are used to bare feet. The back of the sandal also slips down sometimes. Overall a decent purchase if you just need something for looks more than function.

Slip free bottom and Durable!
Size: 12-18 Months Toddler, Color: Sebastian Shark Blue, Size: 12-18 Months Toddler, Color: Sebastian Shark Blue
These are very durable and have the flexibility for your little ones foot to grow as it should! They provide elastic-like material around the ankle for easy on & off, have a slip-free bottom, and are soft and cozy. These come in many different designs as well, I would say these are definitely worth the money! Plus, super cute!!

Loved the slip resistance and how easy they are to put on! The quality seems really great! The shoes did end up being too big for my little man so I did have to return but plan to purchase from this shop again!

I love them
Size: 12-18 Months Toddler, Color: Under the Stars Camping Blue Leather
The absolute cutest shoes ever. I will be keeping them forever. The size is perfect, they’re very lightweight, and perfect for indoor outings like the library. They seem pretty comfortable, my son enjoys putting them on.
