520 8  From Michael L. Printz honoree & National Book Award 
       finalist Elana K. Arnold comes the harrowing story of a 
       young girl's struggle to survive the Holocaust in Romania.
       Frederieke Teitler and her older sister, Astra, live in a 
       house, in a city, in a world divided. Their father ran out
       on them when Rieke was only six, leaving their mother a 
       wreck and their grandfather as their only stable family. 
       He's done his best to provide for them and shield them 
       from antisemitism, but now, seven years later, being a Jew
       has become increasingly dangerous, even in their beloved 
       home of Czernowitz, long considered a safe haven for 
       Jewish people. And when Astra falls in love and starts 
       pulling away from her, Rieke wonders if there's anything 
       in her life she can count on-and, if so, if she has the 
       power to hold on to it.Then-war breaks out in Europe.First
       the Russians, then the Germans, invade Czernowitz.Almost 
       overnight, Rieke and Astra's world changes, and every day 
       becomes a struggle: to keep their grandfather's business, 
       to keep their home, to keep their lives. Rieke has long 
       known that she exists in a world defined by those who have
       power and those who do not, and as those powers close in 
       around her, she must decide whether holding on to her life
       might mean letting go of everything that has ever mattered
       to her-and if that's a choice she will even have the 
       chance to make.Based on the true experiences of her 
       grandmother's childhood in Holocaust-era Romania, award-
       winning author Elana K. Arnold weaves an unforgettable 
       tale of love and loss in the darkest days of the twentieth
       century-and one young woman's will to survive them.
