Part of the Sonlight Curriculum.
I absolutely loved this book. I am parting with it reluctantly. It is one of those haunting stories that I will always remember.
The main character faces many hardships, but is definately what one would consider to be a survivor. As she is moved to Siberia in the Russian Invasion of Poland. Of course when the return to Poland they realize that they were the lucky ones.

Excellent read! Esther Rudomin was ten years old when, in 1941, she and her family were arrested by the Russians and transported to Siberia. This is the true story of the next five years spent in exile, of how the Rudomins kept their courage high, though they went barefoot and hungry.
