This book I felt was very informative about what a little girl and her brother went through in Poland with the war and being Jewish. She was 4 when the war started and 10 when she was rescued. She went through alot. Her mother stayed in the city where they lived and got a job. She left the care of the children to their nanny. A woman that hated Jews and was a devote Catholic. She loved the children and took very good care of them. Her father had ran away to safety and she had not seen her father for years. I feel so sorry for what she and her brother had to go through and her father I feel didn't even suffer a fourth of what they did. Her mother had fake papers so she stayed away to work and give them $. This little girl was taken from her home where she was Jewish, then with the nanny she was to learn the catholic faith. From then she was sent to a sanitarium where she learned the Swedish way of life and language. They were taught Lutheran Religion. One day her mom and dad come for her. She is then thrown back into being a Jew,
that she had not been in years so to speak because she had to survive and adapt.
This book is a very good eye opener to those who like to study history.
