Hana's+Suitcase

Hana's Suitcase By: Karen Levine

Are you intrested in story's from the Holocaust? Well I know that if you are than you will love the book Hana's Suitcase. In this book the main characters are Hana Bradey,George Bradey, and Fumiko. They all have one big thing in comon...they were all brave people. The other characters were Hana and George's mom,dad,aunt,uncel,and their house keeper. The last characters were the Germans-- they were the people who ran the concentration camps they were very cruel to Jewish people.

The first thing that happend in this story was that Fumiko made up this group called the small wings group. (Helped kids learnmore about what happend in the concentration camps.) Next this book jumps back and Hana and George got deported(taken away to the camp). Then this book jumps forward and Fumiko is at the Holocaust museum in Terezin and she finds a list with all the Jews that were at Auschwitz (death camp) and on that list she saw that everyone even Hana had a check mark by their name... But wait George didn't have a check mark. To find out what that check mark means you have to read this book.

This is one of my favorite book's about the Holocaust. I love this book because it told me about a girl and her family and what happend in the camps so I would recomend this book to anyone. It will inspire you to learn more about what happend and how it all started.
