Reviews

`The students were totally bowled over by it.' Ms Theobald, Head of English, Slough Grammar School

A heartbreaking but important read.

It allows the reader to explore the feelings of hope, unity, and friendship that existed even in the dark period of the war and the Holocaust. An important snapshot of what life was like in the 1940s for Jewish and German children.
