About the book
Wassiljewa pens an award-winning, first-person account of a Russian girl's World War II hardships. Enduring terrible conditions and near-starvation in workcamps, Wassiljewa survived through liberation, but had more obstacles to overcome before fulfilling her dream to become a teacher. A harrowing, uplifting story. --Kirkus Reviews.
