Once

Title: Once
Author:Morris Gleitzman
Publisher: Bolinda
ISBN: 9781740949026
Why Read?: For Fun
Challenges: Audio Book, Historical Fiction, European, Free Reads, 100 Books in a Year

Thoughts: I have read a number of YA books concerning the holocaust, but this is the first to make me laugh and cry simultaneously.  Gleitzman really captured what a 10-year-old sheltered boy must have felt when first encountering Nazis and the horrors in Poland in 1942.

Rating: 5 stars
