Summary: This book is only part one of two
Review: The original French book has the full story. In English the story was divided into two books. Book two is titled "It is not so easy to live". Book two is out of print but it is still available as a used book. I read the first book and I was unhappy with its unconclusive ending. I was left wondering what happened next. It seemed to me that there must be a second book that brings her odyssey to a conclusion. Hopefully a happy conclusion. The second part tells the story of how after many challenging adventures the story ends in France. That is the reason why the book was published in French. You could find the french book with the full story at www.amazon.fr (ISBN : 2213010307 or ISBN : 2253003220)

Summary: A young girl experiences world war 2 as a jewish girl
Review: This book was very interesting. The topic at least. Most of the Characters were not described in detail so it was hardly ever sad. Th plot skipped around alot so unless you can understand difficult reading I would not recommend it.

Summary: Great book
Review: This is a great book for pre-teens and teens to read. I read it in 8th grade when I was 13, I was so upset at what she had to go through because of a war, I thought it was wrong that her family, her house, and friends all had to go through that and it made me greatful of what I have. I think this is a great book for anyone to read.

Summary: Hard to get but Good
Review: Well i thought the book was hard to get right away. Alought i did eventually get it, I took me a little while to figure out some things. I did have to re-read some comsepts to get the whole picture. But i think this book was good and very well written. And the fact that it really happend to a young girl, amazes me.

Summary: Hard to Get but Good
Review: Well I thought the book was hard to get right away. Although I did eventually get the concept (because I re-read parts a lot) i found that it wasn't very entertaining. Now and then, there were good parts but there could be more. The book was short but and the the imput was not for me. I think the reason I didn't like it was, it wasn't of my usuall selection of books. But maybe that was just me.I think this book is for people that like to read stories that take place during wars. But compared to others, this was ok. It was well written but couldn't keep my attention.

Summary: This book motivates me to think alot
Review: When I read this book, I feel I was in a world of terror. It is a true story of a fifteen-year old girl, Christine who living in Budapest. Although she is young, she forced to face the World War II. What she could only do is to keep her and her family alive. They stay in a cold, dark cellar of their apartment to avoid bomb attacks. They are living with different kind of people in the cellar. However they start to hate each other. Christine and her family try their best to get out of the city and to make themselves stay away from tragedy.The life of Christine is really hard to imagine, we always have enough food and drink. But for Christine, even flour and water cannot be obtained easily. We have comfortable shelters, but she can only stay in a cold, dark cellar. Most of us can receive good medical care, but those people can't get medicine easily. Just like Christine's father, although he suffers from high blood pressure, he needs to keep going on his journey. I think the hardest thing is to leave their own, loving home. They need to give up everything which has built up for many years. I try to imagine if I was in that situation, I use to give up my books, piano and dolls. I separate from friends. I always afraid bomb attacks and loosing my family. I don't know how long I can stay alive. It is really difficult and painful! This book motivates me to think what we need in our basic life. We should entreasure our food, friends and family instead of aspiring luxury things. As we are still alive, we should try our best to light up our life and to love other. Once we are in adversity, we should as brave as Christine.
