Summary |
"A heartrending graphic memoir about a young Jewish girl's fight for survival in Nazi occupied Poland, The Girl Who Sang illustrates the power of a brother's love, the kindness of strangers, and finding hope when facing the unimaginable." -- Publisher annotation. |

"Enia Feld's childhood is happy, carefree, and full of song. Until the Nazis invade Poland. Change comes slowly to Enia's small village. It starts with German soldiers in town and yellow stars on her sweaters. Later, Jewish children are barred from school and there are whispers of other Jews fleeing Poland. And then, without warning, the Nazis begin rounding up Jewish families--sending them to ghettos or by train to destinations unknown. In a single night, Enia and her family are separated and forced into hiding. Losing her home, her family, and her voice, Enia is left to depend on the mercy of her neighbors as Hitler's war rages across Europe. A beautifully illustrated, unflinching graphic memoir, The Girl Who Sang shares a powerful story--of loss and liberation, of family and survival, of a girl who redisovers her voice after unimaginable loss during the Holocaust." -- Jacket. |
