Number the Stars

Summary: A very great book!
Review: I love this book, it has such great characters and I would reccomend it to any one. I read this book for school, but that doesn't mean it's not good. I felt it described very well about what the Nazi's did do Denmark and Jews. The way the author put her words were very different but not in a bad way at all. One thing I wish about this book was different was that Lois Lowry should make a sequal!

Summary: A fantastic, informative book for all ages!
Review: I am a 5th grade teacher and had my students read and discuss this wonderful book last year. I did not know the circumstances surrounding the Danish Jews in WWII until reading and researching this book. My students loved the book. I could not put the book down when I read it. Lois Lowry is an excellent author who portrays her characters quite realistically. AnneMarie and her family were very courageous for what they did for Ellen's family. I especially liked Lowry's literary style when she compared AnneMarie's walk to her uncle's boat with the tale of Little Red Riding Hood. I, along with my students, highly recommend this book to people of all ages. I look forward to reading more of Lowry's works

Summary: Another magnificient book by Ms. Lowry
Review: Of all of the books I read by Ms. Lowry I have to say I loved this one the best. The clever way Ms. Lowry takes a real situation and intertwines it with fiction so children can relate takes great amount of talent. This book about how a family helps friends to safety during ww2 is heart warming and makes you beleive there are good people out there

Summary: Bored To the DOOR
Review: Not every child likes to read diaries, and I find "Number the Stars" a wonderful alternative about the topic of Jews and Nazi's during the Third Reich. The readers learn about history at the same time as to differentiate between truth and lies and how fine the lines between these sometimes are. The book is also about friendship and loyalty and the responsibility that comes with a deep friendship. A wonderful book for children, espcially for pre-teen girls and a good recommendation for a mother-daughter-book-club.

Summary: A nice preview for young kids
Review: Number the stars is a good look for pre-teens and teens into what was going on during WWII. It is the story of Anne Marie, her family, and her neighbors the Rosens. The German army has soldiers on every corner in Denmark. The Rosens realize they need to get out Denmark to a country were it is safe. The story is one of friendship and courage. I truly recommend this book for all kids to read. It would be best if they followed up with the Devil's Arithmetic. Get past the slow parts in the Devil's Arithmetic, because it gets great after that.
