Teacher’s Top Picks

Hannah, a modern day Jewish girl, travels back in time to experience the events of the Holocaust for herself…

A young German recruit is forced to trade uniforms with a dead Russian or face certain execution…can he keep up the charade and survive? Based on true events

Misha, a young gypsy orphan, is not even sure of his name…is it Stopthief?? Follow his story as he tries to survive in the Warsaw ghetto and find a family to call his own.

One of the most enduring stories of our time, The Book Thief is just a small story really, about, among other things: a girl, some words, an accordionist, some fanatical Germans, a Jewish fist fighter, and quite a lot of thievery. (Barnes and Noble)

It was a summer of love. A summer of hate. A summer that would last a lifetime…Patty Bergen is willing to risk losing family, friends, even her freedom to help an escaped Nazi prisoner.

Not for the faint- hearted, this gripping memoir tells the true story of one boy’s harrowing journey of survival in the Nazi concentration camps. (Note: this book is often read in high school)

Set in California during WWII, this novel tells the story of a young girl and her family, imprisoned in Japanese Internment Camps. (Note: this book is often read in high school)
