Críticas:

"A simple and beautiful account of the life of a Jewish family as, step by step, war and anti-Semitism creep closer to the Hungarian town in which they live, finally engulfing them." --The New Yorker

"Through the description of the destruction of this family, the enormity of the annihilation of European Jewry is shown...A sensitive portrait of a remarkable young girl and her family" --Starred School Library Journal

"This is a book that should be read by all those who are interested in the Holocaust and what it did to young and old" --Isaac Bashevis Singer

Reseña del editor:

The classic true story of one child's experiences during the holocaust.
