Review: I felt this was a very good book. Not only did it keep me intrested till the very end but there was never a time I was able to figure iut how the book would end. The book talks about the war from the view point of a young , confused, German boy. The boy is trying to safely get from Germany to Canada with is young sister without getting caught by the Germans or the Russians. It is a very good book and I highly suggest it to anyone intrested in books about WW 1.

Review: This wasn't a bad book, but the best part was towards the end, which was when you really get hooked onto the story. The story was told from the main character Dieter to a soldier dying beside a tank. Dieter tells, in this story, about all he has experienced growing up in the Third Reich.

The descriptions were very vivid; I enjoyed some of the metaphors and similes used in this book. The story was written very orderly, I thought - every sentence comes forth naturally. The author could try making the dialogue more real - more deliberate, more sudden.

This book has given me a better insight to the "other" side of the Holocaust - the Nazis' side, and the side of the people that just want to pretend everything was okay.
