Review

Fans of the I Survived Series will dig into this story line eagerly. Written with the same pacing and powerful events, readers will learn a bit about history while living the scenes through the eyes of the main characters, Max and his sister Zena.

Thinking they would be safe hiding in the forest, the war reaches them anyway and they decide to join up with Polish resistance fighters. The quick pace and desire to find the outcome will keep readers turning pages. Excellent choice for reluctant readers as the action starts quickly and doesn't stop. I can't keep these books on the shelf!

Overall Book Score: good
