As the German troops begin their campaign to "relocate" all the Jews of Denmark, 10-year-old Annemarie Johansens's family takes in annemaries' best friend, Ellen Roxen, and pretend she is part of the family. Ellen and Annemarie must htink quickly when three Nazi officers arrive late one night and question why Ellen is not blond, like her sisters. Through Annemaries' eyes, we see the Danish Resistance as they manage to smuggle almost the entire Jewish population, nearly seven thousand people, across the sea to Sweden. In this tale of an entire nation's heroism, Lois Lowry reminds us that there is pride and human decency in the world even during a time of terror and war.

this book was good

I read this book in 6th grade and I had to do work on some pice paper so then our teacher can see that we can under stand it. But other people got different books about the holocaust.

I read this in my 4th grade english class, i absolutley hated this book...No i am not saying that cuz of the holocast, God rest their souls, but it was all these things happening at once. They're trying to escape, trying to hide. But, if you take the time to read this book it all makes sense. But it just made me sad and confused when i read this book, but I would reccommend to all the people out there who like historical books..

I like this book. It's filled with facts about what happened when the holocast happened I felt so bad for them.
