This was an amazing story of the struggles this family endured during WWII. I was blown away by the strength Grace showed in keeping her family together. Her writing is very frank and honest. She brings you into the story. It is a tear jerker. I can't even imagine living through this and then adjusting to "normal" life again afterwards.
