The Borrowed House
When Janna is suddenly summoned from Germany to join her parents in Nazi-occupied Amsterdam, she is shocked by the Dutch hatred for the Germans. Her favorite Nordic tales and Hitler Youth indoctrination have not prepared her for the complexities of living in a house requisitioned by a military friend of her parents; or for the violence she sees on the streets. With her parents preoccupied, Janna is lonely and full of questions. It is the house itself which begins to provide real, if painful, answers to Janna's bewilderment--but not before it adds its own set of mysteries to solve. A well-developed, true-to-life tale for teens. Ages 14 & up. |
