Really good book! Although the story is told through the mind of a young child and seems to be a young reader novel, story is told in a gripping simple way. As told by the young boy, the story revolves around the naive and unbiased thoughts of his life. The story is about a very complex issue of Hitlers war against the Jewish population but is told in the simple mind of a young boy who cannot understand what is happening. Very surprising ending and also sad but tells the story without alot of slang and bitterness as most books of this type.

I have this book available but different ISBN number than shown on wish list so doesn't appear to be requested even though it is on many wish list requests
