Book Description
When Lily meets Albert, a refugee from Hungary, during the summer of 1944, they begin a special friendship. However, Lily and Albert have both told lies, and Lily has told a lie that may cost Albert his life.
My Review
This was a very good young adult historical fiction book which explains what children and adults were feeling during the summer of 1944 at the end of WWII as France was being liberated. Along with those feeling, Lily learns an important lesson of how her lies can lead to a devastating result. By the end of the summer, Lily promises herself she will live by the truth forever. I would recommend this book to adults and children 9 -12 because of the lessons it teaches.
