How do you think you're life would be if u were a Jewish living in Germany? Well, in Number the Stars by Louis Lowry Annemarie Johansen and her best friend Ellen Rosen have that problem.

I would recomend this book to anyone who likes books about history even though it is fictional. I never wanted to put it down.
