This is obviously a very important book. It was interesting and heartbreaking to hear his story. This is to me very textbook like, which is fine, but was hard for me to fully comprehend and connect with it. I do think everyone should read this because we cannot forget.

This book explores the Holocaust in a way that I've never seen before. The detail expressed is heartbreaking, and earthshattering, making you want to kiss the ground your reading on. I cannot recommend this book enough, thank you to my sophomore-year high school teacher Mr. Hill for introducing it to me. It was a great read then, and still is now.
