S'està carregant… I Survived the Nazi Invasion, 1944 (2014)de Lauren Tarshis
![]() Cap No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Solid short adventure set in an escape from one of the Polish Ghettos. Intense history, appreciate the centering on the Jewish partisans waging a guerrilla war from the forest, and the moment of connection to the young nazi soldier that speaks to the ambiguity of war. ( ![]() I Survived the Nazi Invasion, 1944 is the 9th book in the I Survived series. This series is a great educational tool for kids (and adults, too!). Each book tells a fictional account of children at the scene of a historical event or disaster. Facts about the event are included in the fictional eyewitness account. After the story, the author has an afterward where she gives more facts, her thoughts on the event and information on how she researches her books. I can see how these books would be an awesome classroom resource for reading, learning history and discussion. In this book, Max and Zena are Jewish children living in the Warsaw Ghetto in Poland. Nazi guards patrol, shooting anyone who goes past the walls. Max tries to get some fruit from beyond the wall and gets caught. He and Zena flee into the forest, joining partisan rebels who are fighting the Nazis. The children survive all sorts of harrowing events and eventually end up immigrating to America. The author is Jewish so her afterward is very heart-felt. I listened to the audiobook version of this story. The book is quick listen at just short of 1.5 hours. Jonathan McClain narrates. His voice is clear and easily understood. He reads at a nice steady pace with good inflection. I have hearing loss, but was easily able to hear and understand the entire book. This series is informative and enjoyable. I'm definitely going to read more of this series! There are 17 books in all. Topics range from more modern events like the Joplin, MO tornado to long-past history such as the destruction of Pompeii. While thinking about children in a disaster situation is scary and sad, I think this series can bring historical events alive for kids because the stories talk about the events from the view point of other children. Great educational tool! 00014994 00014616 This is a great book to introduce young adults history. Presented in detail, but not overwhelmingly so, this gives the reader an overall sense of what it was like to lose your parents and try to survive the Polish ghetto, to narrowly escape and then find a way to get to the forest where others were hiding. This is the kind of book I would have loved to read when I was young and very interested in history. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
