Making Bombs for Hitler
By Marsha Forchuk Skrypuch
This book had just enough new details about WWII to keep Davis and I wanting to read more. It tells about a lesser known part of WWII.
Lida thought she was safe. She was not Jewish. But, nobody can escape the horrors of World War II. Lida's parents are ripped away from her and sister Larissa is separated. Then, Lida is taken to a brutal work camp, where she and other Ukrainian children are forced into backbreaking labor. Starving and scared for her life Lida forms a bond with her fellow prisoners. That's when Lida and her friends are assigned to make bombs for the German army. Help the enemy? Lida cannot stand this thought and decides to sabotage the bombs. Will she get caught? Will she ever see her sister again?
Great read! (And there are more written by Marsha!)
