I had this book on my TBR pile for a long while now because I didn't want to be depressed by reading a depressing Holocaust-era book. This book is completely not what I was expecting! It's funny, it's sad, it's cute, it's horrifying, and very much enlightening. It has a lot of nature, and animal anecdotes interspersed with the history of Poland and how all of these elements fit together. I would highly recommend this book!

It also has pictures and a reading club guide in the back.
