Product Description

From Amazon.com

The evacuation of Jews from Nazi-held Denmark is one of the great untold stories of World War II. On September 29, 1943, word got out in Denmark that Jews were to be detained and then sent to the death camps. Within hours the Danish resistance, population and police arranged a small flotilla to herd 7,000 Jews to Sweden. Lois Lowry fictionalizes a true-story account to bring this courageous tale to life. She brings the experience to life through the eyes of 10-year-old Annemarie Johannesen, whose family harbors her best friend, Ellen Rosen, on the eve of the round-up and helps smuggles Ellen's family out of the country. Number the Stars won the 1990 Newbery Medal. --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.

From Publishers Weekly

Set in Nazi-occupied Denmark in 1943, this 1990 Newbery winner tells of a 10-year-old girl who undertakes a dangerous mission to save her best friend. Ages 10-14.

5.0étoiles sur 5 History lesson in an exciting form, Juil 15 2004
Par Megan "Megan" (Massachusetts) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
As Hitler secretly prepared to round up all the Jews of Denmark, someone (to this day no one knows who, although there are some theories) warned the government. The result is that almost all of the 7,500 Jewish people living in Denmark managed to escape the country in the space of a few days, even though the country was already under the occupation of watchful Nazi troops.

This book is about that escape. Annmarie is 10 years old and lives in the same appartment building as her best friend, Ellen, who is Jewish. One day, Ellen's parents must flee and Ellen moves in with Annmarie and pretends to be her dead sister. Annmarie, her parents, and her little sister must band together with the rest of the Danish resistance to get Ellen to safety.

This is an exciting, fast-paced book about bravery and doing what's right. The characters are very realistic and human. This is an inspiring story for any child, and it teaches a very interesting history lesson to any adult who might not know the story of how practically no Danish Jews died under Hitler.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Number The Stars, Avril 10 2003
Par Aaron Berlin (N. ogden Utah) - Voir tous mes commentaires
Number The Stars is a very good book wrighten by Lois Lowry.
This is a very good and interesting book about World War Two and what the German's did to the Jews, and how Hitles wanted to eliminate all Jews. German Solders are on every corner to watch and control everything the people would do. The book took place in Denmark. Some of the main characters are Annemarie Johansen, a ten year old girl, that is growing up at the time of the war in 1943.
Annemarie's best friend was a Jew, the solders came to the room and ...... read Number The Stars by Lois Lowry to find out what happens.

Par Un client
I liked the book, even though it is typically not my type of book. Number the Stars is a good book to learn about World War II. The reason why I liked this book is because one family is trying to save another family from the Nazis. They had to go through a lot of
trouble to get them safely to Sweden.
