Praise
In this direct, unadorned telling from Rosen (Bear’s Big Dreaming) and Phillips (Alte Zachen/Old Things), emotionally spare text respects readers’ ability to bear witness, while ink, charcoal, and pencil drawings convey both immediacy and enormity, plunging readers into a world where nothing is assured.
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
The writing is concise yet powerfully descriptive. . . A moving story appropriate for a younger audience. This is an essential purchase.
—School Library Journal (starred review)
Specific details evoke chilling realities: exact dates, the names of fellow prisoners, the French citizens who provided help, and the number of their transport train: Convoy 62. The somber ink, charcoal, and pencil illustrations aptly reinforce this testimony from a survivor who resolved to keep living, even if just for one day.
