Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Ten-year-old Annemarie Johansen and her best friend Ellen Rosen often think of life before the war. It's now 1943 and their life in Copenhagen is filled with school, food shortages, and the Nazi soldiers marching through town. When the Jews of Denmark are "relocated". Ellen moves in with the Johansens and pretends to be one of the family. Soon Annemarie is asked to go on a dangerous mission to save Ellen's life. An ALA Notable Book. A "School Library Journal" Best Book of the Year. Teacher's Guide. BDD Online-Teacher's Resource Center.

Amazon.com Review:
The evacuation of Jews from Nazi-held Denmark is one of the great untold stories of World War II. On September 29, 1943, word got out in Denmark that Jews were to be detained and then sent to the death camps. Within hours the Danish resistance, population and police arranged a small flotilla to herd 7,000 Jews to Sweden. Lois Lowry fictionalizes a true-story account to bring this courageous tale to life. She brings the experience to life through the eyes of 10-year-old Annemarie Johannesen, whose family harbors her best friend, Ellen Rosen, on the eve of the round-up and helps smuggles Ellen's family out of the country. Number the Stars won the 1990 Newbery Medal.

- Moving, Simple Book for Adolescents About the Holocaust
Number the Stars tells a simple believable tale of a pre-adolescent girl in Denmark who performs an heroic act. The act is not over the top or outrageous and it is perfectly comprehensible that a girl could do it. That is what makes this book special.

- experience the true horror
This book is very well-written. I read this book in 8th grade and many times after that. When you read this book you feel like as if your experienceing the struggle. A very good book.

- Not Moving
Although my favorite genre is historical fiction, this book just didn't do it for me. I wasn't greatly moved and I didn't feel really sad or compassionate. This novel is short and sweet, informative, not boring, and well put together. The only thing is that it doesn't make you feel the way the characters do, or change your perspective on things. I reccomend to anyone who enjoys reading about the holocaust. I did enjoy reading it, but it wasn't fanominal. The plot was almost unbelievable. It is a little ... Read More

- Intense, but entertaining
As a kid reading this book, I was overwhelmed. It was entertaining, dramatic. I was overcome and learned religious tolerance, compassion, and other great emotions for a child to learn. Incredible introduction to WWII/Holocaust.

Rating:

- Amazing
This book is a great book you can picyure if you and your friends went through a very hard time and relized that it could be the end of your friendship forever it makes you picture that if you and your best friend went through that what it would feel like to know that your friend is in trouble and you and your family need to help them so that they dont get taken away and if they do get taken away you feel thet it is on your schoulders. when I read this bookicould not put it down I loved it at first I was ...
