About 10 when German soldiers rolled into his town in Poland, Leon went through unimaginable horrors by the time he was 15 when Oskar Schindler claimed as many of his family as possible to work in his factory. A moving story of the holocaust told through the eyes of a child. The book is riveting, tragic, and hopeful. It should come home to Gabe who will be 13 this summer. I do wonder about the books that his school reads during the school year...for a Catholic school the books seem unduly depressing.
I have now started Dead Ever After by Charlaine Harris which is the 13th and says the last in the Sookie Stackhouse series. However, two other "dead" books are listed on the "List of books by this author" page. We shall see. The book starts with the men in Sookie's life being troubled, upset, moody, and looks to head down from here.
