Summary: Wonderful Book!
Review: +AH4-This book really fits the mood for World War II. Annemarie Johansen and her best friend Ellen Rosen might just be different as night and day - Annemarie is Christian and Ellen is Jewish - but that is an important part in this book. Annemarie has some hardships of her own - including the fact her older sister Lise, part of the Resistance, was killed. Yet one day spending the day with the Johansens' turns into one long night when Ellen sleeps over and nearly ends up caught, if it isn't for the+AH4-+AH4- craftiness of Annemarie's father's baby pictures. The Johansens then find out that the only way to keep Ellen safe is to take her to Annemarie's Uncle Hendrik's in Sweden. This is an exciting, wonderful, funny, serious book, that even if you aren't Jewish, you really will feel as if you are there, whether Annemarie or Ellen themselves, or just a minor character - looking up to a wonderful book+AH4-

Summary: Anne Frank but put in a kids book
Review: I think this book is powerful. Any jewish or non-jewish kid should read this. I read it in 6th grade and I'm in 8th now. This book makes me think about how life would be if this happened in America. Lois Lowry is a great writer and I love reading her books. I recomend her book Autumn Street.

Summary: Absorbing, frank, and serious -- all all the same time
Review: Lowry does an excellent job at absorbing the reader immediately into a story that it full of emotion and frankness. The characters are fairly believable, albeit one-dimensional. The metaphors are obvious, but enough so that most children will detect them. The text deals with the Danish Resistance, a subject that has only recently gotten the notoriety it deserves. Readers wonder along with Annemarie whether they could be heroes if such dire situations presented themselves.
