In this incredibly dark place, they were a reminder of less sombre times, when words rang out more loudly than machine guns...' Fourteen-year-old Dita is one of the many imprisoned by the Nazis at Auschwitz. Taken, along with her mother and father, from the Terezin ghetto in Prague, Dita is adjusting to the constant terror that is life in the camp.

But books are extremely dangerous. They make people think. And nowhere are they more dangerous than in Block 31 of Auschwitz, the children's block, where the slightest transgression can result in execution, no matter how young the transgressor...

    A good read ...

    In my opinion ... Is a very good read this story was written by someone who had been incontact with the main character in this book, she was a teenager at the time and was together with her family an inmate in the place which doesnt bear mentioning. She witnessed first had the brutality and deplorable conditions that these folk had to endure and also the down right evilness of SS's working in the camp Dr Mengele was involved with this camp.. .

  • Horrifying but good

    So sad to read about the events of the concentration camps. But also an eye opener. Very gripping.
