Opis

As World War II started to break out throughout Europe, Becky Vilner, a nine-year-old American girl, found herself alone in the Netherlands. A bomb blast had torn her from her parents during their poorly-timed visit to a country unexpectedly invaded by Nazi Germany. Becky's life was in serious danger. She was Jewish. Nazis murdered Jews: men and women, old and young. They did it in all the countries they had conquered. Knowing no one in the Netherlands and not even speaking its language, Becky had only a slim chance to avoid being slaughtered. But, even a little chance is still a chance... The book features an intriguing chain of events with unexpected turns, adventures, and emotional moments. It paints a picture of WWII Netherlands, the country that was occupied but not defeated. It tells the story of people who resisted the Nazi regime and ideology, helping one another despite the deadly risk.
