Summary:
"Eitan lives in a small town. The comings and goings of his neighbors and his family, the time he spends playing with his best friend, Rivka, his approaching violin performance in the town theater, all give his life rhythm. But Eitan is afraid. Afraid of the men in uniform who built walls around his town and afraid of what happens to people who leave through the gates and never return ... This sensitive introduction to the Holocaust for young readers emphasizes the importance of ritual and remembrance and resilience of Jewish communities during one of the darkest moments in human history."-- Adapted from front jacket flap
