Reader Reviews:Heart Rending (12/13 people found this helpful)I thought this book was so brilliant and it really made me think. How could people treat others like that? I really felt for Elli and at times I was too sad to read any further. I would recommend this to teanagers and adults as it really opens your eyes. Moving and thought-provoking (12/15 people found this helpful)I first read this book at school when studying the holocaust for O-level. Now, some twelve years on, I have come back to Amazon to buy a new copy as mine has finally disintegrated from repeated readings. This book is almost too painful to read in places and conveys a real sense of place, mood, emotion and the like. I think if this book was compulsory reading for teenagers they might stop and think before complaining of their lot in life. We can all learn from Elli's courage. A heart-rending Holocaust memoir. (11/11 people found this helpful)This is such a sad book, telling of one young Hungarian Jewish girl's experience of the Holocaust. If you are feeling a bit sorry for yourself, read what Elli had to endure and then count your blessings.
