This is an incredible book. I do not know how more people aren’t aware of it. It broached the subject of the atrocities of WWII in a lyrical and truthful way. The magic and fantasy elements of the story did not lessen or diminish the brutality of the war and the heartbreak of the Jewish community of Poland. Truly a wonderful book.

A doll fairy tale transposed over the Holocaust, for middle grade readers. Perhaps good learning about history, though I fear it is repeating itself in our current times which made it even more sad.

Una historia preciosa y muy triste sobre la WWII. Superó todas mis expectativas y la única queja que tengo es que no entendí a qué público apunta el texto. La historia es para adultos, pero está narrado como para niños y eso me descolocó un poco. Por lo demás, es un libro muy bonito que recomiendo.

A promise to myself that I'll read this before the year ends!
I liked it, unfortunately I didn't make the time to read anything so I want to start this again in December and enjoy it properly

Um livro que nos faz perceber o quão longe o ódio cego pode conduzir as pessoas. Um livro que nos chama a atenção para o facto de sermos pessoas conscientes e que não olham para o lado e fingem que algo não acontece porque simplesmente acontece com o outro e não connosco.
