I would suggest to anyone, young and old to read this book. It makes me so thankful we are not in a world war. Hilarious and Heartwarming.

As the German troops begin their campaign to "relocate" all the Jews of Denmark, 10-year-old Annemarie Johansens's family takes in annemaries' best friend, Ellen Roxen, and pretend she is part of the family. Ellen and Annemarie must htink quickly when three Nazi officers arrive late one night and question why Ellen is not blond, like her sisters. Through Annemaries' eyes, we see the Danish Resistance as they manage to smuggle almost the entire Jewish population, nearly seven thousand people, across the sea to Sweden. In this tale of an entire nation's heroism, Lois Lowry reminds us that there is pride and human decency in the world even during a time of terror and war.

Just finished this like half and hour ago and it was short and sweet. That is the best way to describe it because there are only 137 pages, but it's very, very good!
its okay i mean its good but you learn stuff so........................
we are reading this in class!! my teacher said it is a good book for us Catholics
I had to summarize it for homework. It may seem girlish though it is for everyone! Its really good.
So far this is really good, but I am only on chapter two, so it's not a fair/accurate assessment of the book.
Pls read it!
Wonderful story. About the poor life of a Jew in the old days.
