Cherry Valley Elem. School Library

SUMMARY:  From 1939, when Syvia is four and a half years old, to 1945 when she has just turned ten, a Jewish girl and her family struggle to survive in Poland’s Lodz ghetto during the Nazi occupation. What a sad story. This is historical fiction and is based on the story of the author’s aunt. Historical fiction is one of my favorite genres. I learn so much about history reading historical fiction.
