A review by rmarcin
The Girl with the Red Balloon by Katherine Locke

4.0

I was not aware of anything about this book. I think I decided to download it because it was on a book list or book recommendation somewhere. It is a young adult novel set in Berlin, Germany. It is the first in a series.
I grew to really like Ellie Baum, and Kai and Mitzi, the main characters in the book. While it is a bit of fantasy / magic, it really brings forth the question on what you would do if you could remake / change history. Would it be better or worse, or should you not try to change it?
This was an interesting take on the holocaust, and its repercussions on those who survived and future generations.
There is a 2nd book in the series which I will read to see how the story develops.
