Critic reviews

'Haunting ... dangerous and desperate, but also full of courage and hope' (The Guardian)
All stars
Most relevant  
A sad account of what life was like for Jews and some of the horrors faced by children at that time. Beautifully written and narrated. Couldn’t help being absorbed into the story and the sadness of looking at that period through the eyes of a child. Horrific and heartbreaking but also filled with hope for a young boy navigating the new world he finds himself in.

Beautifully narrated book
