From the Publisher:
In early 1940s Poland, 10-year-old Felix and his friend Zelda escape from a cattle car headed to the Nazi death camps and struggle to survive, first on their own and then with Genia, a farmer who has her own reasons for hating Germans. By the author of |
Annotation:
The stunning sequel to ONCE finds Felix and Zelda stranded in 1942 Poland, having bravely escaped a concentration camp-bound train. The children must use their imagination and wits to stay alive in a deeply hostile landscape filled with horrors. After some terrible run-ins, they get lucky when they find Genia, a farmer who at first reluctantly takes them in, only to become very attached to the pair. The inhumanity and brutality of the Nazis is cataloged here numerous times, but from the viewpoint of a ten-year-old and a six-year-old, creating a unique perspective. Will Felix and Zelda be able to stay put and continue experiencing family, or will they be forced to run again?
