The Hidden Girl: A True Story of the Holocaust by Lola Rein Kaufman

4.0

3 1/2 stars in a good way considering how it's a REALLY short book and easy read, I'm a sucker for WWII stories whether it be adult or children book versions (like this one) of these Holocaust survivors, I love them and read what each one went through. Lola went through a TON for her age and one thing I did like was she showed you how to say certain letters sound in Polish for example she said the CZ makes a "CH" sound and the o in Kraków sound like "u" and the W sounds like a "v". SO Kraków is you figured out "KRAK-UV" so pretty neat to actually know that. And I do love that infamous phrase: you learn something new everyday (especially when you read books! ;))

So I did enjoy this book and did break my heart and makes me so glad I didn't have to live during those times and also have privileges in a country when there's those in others countries who don't have those freedom privileges like we do. So a good read for any age and would recommend this story. :)
