Number the Stars

I love books about World War 2, but this book isn't for me although it is still good.

This story takes place in Denmark during the Nazi invasion. Annemarie is a ten year old girl who's best friend is Jewish. When the Nazi's come searching for her friends family, Annemarie will have to be strong and brave to protect her friend.

This was a good topic, but I felt like it could have been more exciting. The topic is scary, so it could have been more exciting, but there wasn't enough suspence. There wasn't really a good problem in this book.There was danger, but there wasn't exactly a problem. Overall, this will let you see more what it was like in the Nazi invasioin, so it is interesting, but it's just not that exciting.

I read this (reguired reading) in middle school. And i re-read it now, years later. It still makes me sad and horrfited at the way the Jews had to run.

It's the blonde hair and green eyes, so sterotipical. My mother has both and she isn't a jew, let would be prosocuted. Novels that reflect on how horrible our race has been really makes me sad.

If you are looking for something as deep and touching as Anne Frank's Diary, you will be disappointed, but overall this is still a pretty good book. My only complaint is that it's too short, feels rushed, and you don't get enough info to really "feel" for the characters and their situations.

This was an O.K. book. It talk a lot about the Holocost It should not be read by people under the age of 9-10.This book is pretty sad so some people should not read it (like my mom).

I think this is a pretty good book. It's about a girl and her best friend Ellen. It's
1943 and the Nazis are relocating Jews.
Annemarie must protect Ellen with her life
along with the help of her parents and her
little sister Kirsti.

I thought of this book of an O.K. book. It was not interesting until the very end... it had too much history in it and personaly i like fantasy books with mythical creatures and all of that. And i like fighting in wars and stuff. Even though this book is about a war it has no fighting at all and that is what i enjoy to read. but if u like history and no fighting of any sort u may like this book.
