(2) 4-6 In this verse novel based on a true story, a little French Jewish girl recounts her childhood during World War II. When she is sent to a country village, posing as a Christian, the uncertainty of her life filled with secrets is beautifully realized, allowing Odette's terror, confusion, gradual acceptance, and new familiarity with God to come through in a very personal way.
