Number the Stars

NUMBER THE STARS: Lois Lowry: Houghton Mifflin: Young Adult: 137 pages

In 1943, during the German occupation of Denmark, ten-year-old Annemarie learns how to be brave and courageous when she helps shelter her Jewish friend from the Nazis.

I remember reading this Newberry Award Winner when I was younger and enjoying it. Again I was engrossed in this story of the Holocaust and the bravery Annemarie and her family displayed.
