Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

A National Jewish Book Award Winner

Hannah dreads going to her familys Passover Seder — shes tired of hearing her relatives talk about the past. But when she opens the front door to symbolically welcome the prophet Elijah, shes transported to a Polish village in the year 1942. Why is she there, and who is this Chaya that everyone seems to think she is? Just as she begins to unravel the mystery, Nazi soldiers come to take everyone in the village away. And only Hannah knows the unspeakable horrors that await.

Grades 5-9 Ages 10-15

Reseña del editor

Hannah resents stories of her Jewish heritage and of the past until, when opening the door during a Passover Seder, she finds herself in Poland during World War II where she experiences the horrors of a concentration camp, and learns why she--and we--need to remember the past.
