Hana's Suitcase: A True Story

111 pp. | Whitman | March, 2003 | Trade ISBN 0-8075-3148-0 $$15.95
(3) 4-6 Alternating the story of Hana, a Jewish girl who died at Auschwitz, with that of a contemporary Japanese museum curator determined to commemorate her, this nonfiction account, liberally illustrated with documentary photos, tries both to bear honest witness and to tell a good story. It has limited success on both counts, but the book's warm closure makes this a good introduction to the subject for third and fourth graders.
