Read a nonfiction book or historical fiction book.
Would you recommend this book? If so, who would you recommend it to, and why? If not, why not?
DEFINALTELY. I read a lot of fantasy so this book was sort of a break from the mostly traditional books I read. The story is about Dita Kraus, a remarkable girl who bravely risked her life by becoming the Librarian of Auschwitz. Basically she would hide books in her dress and then deliver them to different adults who would in turn use the books to teach the children in Auschwitz and give them a little hope. Reading this book gave me a completely different perspective on the Holocaust and taught me a lot about the resilience of not only Jewish adults but also Jewish children, who were being imprisoned, tortured, and murdered by the barbaric and emotionless Nazi's
