What Members Thought
It a shame my kids had to wait till high school to read this masterful story. I suppose there'd be too many objections to it at a younger age. Very, very powerful story. "The Fury" indeed.

Mixed feelings about this one. Some parts just seemed implausible under the watchful eye of the Nazi regime, but I do believe that misinterpretations can occur on the part of the children--with their innocence, naivete, and hopefulness. I have a hard time believing the protagonist was so uninformed about his family's circumstances that he mispronounced things as he did.
