A review by bookph1le
Number the Stars by Lois Lowry

4.0

I learned a lot from this book. It's a great example of the sort of book that makes you think about how you would behave in a difficult situation. The writing is lovely, and a complex issue is dealt with in a way that I felt was appropriate for a middle grade audience. There was a wee bit of sentimentality to it, I thought, which was the only thing that kept it from being a five-star book for me.
