(2) YA Hilly and Zoë are forced to share a room since their grandmother Heidi, who has Alzheimer's, has come to live with the family. But soon two other sisters command the reader's concentration. Heidi, née Sarah, and her older sister were separated when the Nazis came to power and the family decided to send Sarah to England for safety. Newbery artfully moves her text from the present of Heidi's disintegration to her past as a child.
