From the website: The moving and true story of a Jewish family uprooted and exiled to Siberia.
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 Rudomin's kept their courage high, though they went barefoot and hungry.
It's amazing what people can learn to live through and live with (and without) when necessary. It's not Anne Frank, even though it says it rivals her diary on the cover of Endless Steppe.
She also wrote, Remember Who You Are: Stories about Being Jewish, which I read about 6-7 years ago. I found the adult book to be more memorable.
