The Earth Is Singing

Winner of the Young Quills Historical Novel Award. Longlisted for the CILIP Carnegie Medal.

My name is Hanna Michelson. I am 15. I am Latvian.

I live with my mother and grandmother. My father is missing - taken by the Russians.

I have a boyfriend. When he holds my hand, everything feels perfect. I'm training to be a dancer.

But none of that matters now. Because the Nazis have arrived, and I am a Jew. And as far as they are concerned, that is all that matters. This is my story.

Bericht

'The Earth is Singing' was a beautiful, empowering book with a storyline so powerful, it's enough to make anyone emotional. It was so capturing, you won't be able to turn the pages fast enough! Monisah Ali, age 16, for lovereading4kids.co.uk
