This book tells the historical story of Polish zookeepers in WWII Warsaw. The zoo is bombed but they manage to save over 300 people from the Nazis by hiding these "guests" in zoo cages/buildings. It is a evocative book describing survival, underground activism, and the kindness of human interactions. The extensive research by the author is well written to blend the historical details with the natural surroundings of the zoo grounds and natural environment of Poland.
