Summary: A review by a girl
Review: I liked this book, but the author I think needed to add more detail about when she first got there instead of jumping back and forth. I would like to read more books about the war and the Jewish people in Germany.Would you like to be at war as a child? This story takes place in Germany at a concentration camp. It is about a young girl who lives with her big family. They are forced to leave their home and go live in a Ghetto. They weren't doing too well, but then they are forced again to leave the Ghetto and move to a concentration camp. Later, Inge Aubacher (the little girl) gets sick from starvation, food poisoning, water pollution, diabetes, chicken pox, scarlet fever, and the measles. But not at once, because she would get better and then she would get sick again and again and again.Do you think Inge Aubacher will survive before the war ends? You'll have to read the book to find out!
