Written with touching sensitivity by Antonio Iturbe, and translated by Lilit Thwaites, this audiobook provokes every emotional response and will not be forgotten. Fourteen-year-old Dita is one of the many imprisoned by the Nazis at Auschwitz. Taken, along with her mother and father, from the TerezÃn ghetto in Prague, Dita is adjusting to the constant terror that is life in the camp. When Jewish leader Freddy Hirsch asks Dita to take charge of the eight precious volumes the prisoners have managed to sneak past the guards, she agrees. And so Dita becomes the librarian of Auschwitz. Out of one of the darkest chapters of human history comes this extraordinary story of courage and hope. 521 8 $a Ages 8-12. 541 $d 20230106. 610 27 $a Auschwitz (Concentration camp) $v Fiction. $v Fiction. 650 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $v Fiction. $v Fiction. 650 $a Young adult literature. 655 7 $a Graphic novels. 830 $a Graphic Readers. 941 $a 1 952 $l KOPC446 $d 20230125013847.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A01EB66C9C7E11EDA40D082D50ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
