My Mother's Secret: A Novel Based on a True Holocaust Story

Very quick read. Several times I felt like I had read it already. This is based on a true story about a woman who, during the Holocaust, in Poland, hid two families, and an AWOL soldier in her small farm house. I was thinking it would be a good first book for a child who wants to learn about the Holocaust, without delving into a very complex story.
