The account, based on a radio documentary Levine did in Canada, is part history, part suspenseful mystery, and always, anguished family drama, with an incredible climactic revelation. The informal style brings home what it was like for an ordinary kid at the time, and what it means for children to find out about her today. The facts are inescapable, illustrated with glowing family photos, Nazi official documents that show Hana's fate, and pictures she drew in the secret art classes in Terezin., ..." Hana's story will captivate young readers as it unfolds. Levine successfully incorporates the two stories: a bleak story of a young girl's pointless suffering and death at the hands of fellow humans, the other a hopeful one of children, a world away in space and time from the events that deprived Hana of her future, who vow 'never again.'", "The text is well written, moving, and accessible; the photos are involving and the format is well designed."The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, ..."Hana's story will capative young readers as it unfolds.

Who was Hana Brady? What happened to her? They wanted Fumiko Ishioka, the center's curator, to find the answers. In a suspenseful journey, Fumiko searches for clues across Europe and North America.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.

    A reluctant reader loved it.

    I would give the content 5 stars but I chose 4 stars because it was supposed to be a hardcover book. My granddaughter really liked the book and wanted her own copy. She is not usually a fan of reading.
