At a time when many of the suvivors of Nazi Germany are no longer with us, this story provides a valuable link to a new generation of children, who want to learn and read about how their grandparents grew up and survived this chilling chapter of history.
Though this book is primarily for children, the readership could be extended to young aduly and older readers.
Ingrid Silvian has written a memorable story for children that will help them understand what it was really like to live through events of WWII, how children just like them adapt and survive. Through vignettes in the lives of two young girl friends, one Jewish, one Christian, we experience how everything changed when the Nazis came. Silvian provides a child's eye view of war, both mundane and profound - a shift from marbles to shrapnel as the treasure of choice; racing to catch the last train carrying evacuees out of the city - and ultimately, who was saved and who was sacrificed. At a time when many of the first hand witnesses of this chilling chapter of history are passing away, Silvian's story provides a valuable link that reaches across generations that will live on in the hearts and minds of a new generation of children.
