"I had to read this book for a book report for school, and it turned out to be a really good story! I was surprised, considering my curriculum's (awful) past choices in books"
"I read this with my 11 year old son and we really enjoyed it. I had never thought about Holland during WWII and so it was very educational as well as inspiring. I hope I would be as generous and brave during such difficult times."
