I read this because Madame Kapp was kind enough to give a lecture for my class. Cretzmeyer does a good job of capturing a child's fear and confusion of posing as a Christian in WWII. The book is easy to read and engrossing. It contains horror and humor. Appendices give additional information about the time. The book would be well used in conjunction with The Diary of Anne Frank or Night.

Jeanette I followed the path from your Sarah's Key review to this one. I've just placed a request for this from the library. How cool to have the lady come to your class!


Chris She was very cool.
