This is an amazing book. Telling the chilling story of a round-up of
Jews in Paris in 1942, from the perspective of a ten-year-old girl, this is one
of those books that grabs you in the beginning and won't let you go. The
quick transition from a tranquil childhood to the horrors of being mistreated
just because you carry a certain label is a theme that I don't often think
about, but millions experienced it during the Holocaust. I'm down to the
last few pages and I'm so impressed by the author's skill in taking me into this
little known chapter in France's history. I can't wait to finish it. Reviewed by Susan Richmond
