The story felt so incredibly real, and I really enjoyed reading from the perspective of Sara, who is a young Jewish girl. Vive l'humanite. ( ) 482 / 17 - 'Ενα πραγματικά υπέροχο βιβλίο Μεταφέρει με όμορφο και όσον το δυνατόν πιο ανώδυνα , θλιβερές καταστάσεις του παρελθόντος που πρέπει να μας γίνονται μαθήματα και μην επιτρέπουμε να ξαναεπαναληφθούν Εκείνο που επίσης περνάει το βιβλίο , είναι πως δε πρέπει να μένουμε αδιάφοροι και αμέτοχοι σε κάτι που συμβαίνει γύρω μας , και ξέρουμε πως είναι άδικο και μας ενοχλεί The story takes place in occupied France during WWII. Narrated told as a story of a grandmother to her grandson currently about her life during Nazi occupation of France. There is heartbreaking sadness, despair, lights of hope, and redemption. The story is well written. The artwork is simple and helps the story, but could have been much better. While this story begins to reveal the horror of the Holocaust, it does so in an introductory fashion that is appropriate for young readers. It also points towards more resources for those that want to learn more about the Holocaust, the resistance in France, and more. Trigger Warnings: Holocaust In White Bird, readers are told Julian’s (who you meet in Wonder) Grandmère’s story as a young Jewish girl hidden away in the barn of a classmate’s in Nazi-occupied France during World War II. I’ve been meaning to read this book for a while now and I needed something I knew I would enjoy before my next read. So, I grabbed this from my library. There is a bit of a tie in to events in recent days. Which brings up the quote shared at the very beginning of the book, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” - George Santayana. I don’t think the author is pointing at comparing what’s happening at the US/Mexico border to the Holocaust as a whole, but more of what the beginning of it looked like. The main character, Sara even mentions the fact that even though she was limited to certain places, or stopped from going into others, that it didn’t really bother her at the beginning. Overall, there is no reason to be unjust to any specific group of people. I enjoyed the story and how it was told, especially for the middle grade age group it’s targeted for. Sara’s story is a page turner with many moments of tension. The author does an amazing job at still showing the horrors of war while still making it suitable for middle grade readers. There are also resources in the back few pages to expand the story as well as lists of organizations, biographies, and photos. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

HTML: La primera novela grfica de J.R.Palacio tiene un simbolismo tan potente que es capaz de traernos del pasado un valiossimo mensaje. La abuela de Julian le cuenta cmo ella, Sara, fue acogida por una familia en pueblo francs, ocupado por los nazis, durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Le explica cmo fue perseguida por ser juda y cmo el nio al que todos rechazaban se convirti en su salvador y mejor amigo. Esta desgarradora y conmovedora experiencia demuestra el poder de la amabilidad para cambiar corazones, construir puentes e incluso salvar vidas. Como su abuela le dice a Julian: Siempre se necesita valor para ser amable, pero en aquellos tiempos, esa amabilidad poda costarte todo. .No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
