Summary: The Girl Who Knows The Truth
Review: In this story, "Hitler's Daughter" is a pretend story made up by an girl called Anna, who tells it to her friends. Everyone knows Hitler never had a daughter, but this book is a "what if" fictional story on a girl who happened to be Hitler's daughter.
Heidi, Hitler's daughter in this story, had been hidden away from the outside world all through her life because Hitler didn't want anyone to know he had a daughter. Heidi's life is pretty much sheltered from reality until the very end of World War II. Her story is told in a very simple, direct way, through the eyes of a precocious child who doesn't see much in her life.
Mark was one of Anna's friends who listened while she told the story of Hitler's daughter. He finds her a very intriguing character and her story causes him to be more wary of the worlds around him.

This has been a very interesting book to read, and the title "Hitler's Daughter" is indeed a most captivating title. I liked how the story is told in such a simple, direct way, so it seems as though it is Heidi who tells her own story, not Anna.
However, some issues discussed in this book were never solved in the end (such as Mark wondering what he would have done if his own father was Hitler, and the part about his farm and the Aborigines.) The middle of this book was a little boring (because nothing much happened to Heidi anyways), but it is the ending that slowly sinks into you and makes you say, "oh."
Heidi was ultimately the most interesting character in this book, and her story is a compelling yet fictional one of "what might have been".

[Why have I never thought of writing a story like this?]

Summary: an ok book
Review: this book was a good one. the end was the only thing that i didn't like. it just leaves off and i don't like books like that cuz it just leaves u hanging. but everything else, the characters fit, but in the begining i didn't really know where the people were.
this book is a good read and its short and easy.
