Synopsis
Told in alternating chapters this is the true story of two children swept up in the horrible events of World War II. Helen is a Jewish girl who spends two years hiding in the Netherlands before being captured by the Nazis and sent to Auschwitz. Alfons is a boy who lives just a few miles away from where Helen was born. He joins the Hitler Youth and becomes a commander by the age of 16. Their stories reveal the terrible impact Hitler had on a generation of German children. More than 40 years after the war ends, Helen and Alfons meet for the first time and discover that they share the goal of teaching young people that peace and compassion is, and should be, a possibility for all people.

Industry Reviews
"...[Alfons] Heck's story, in particular, offers a point of view not much seen in Holocaust books for young people, and both his Nazi fervor and subsequent awakening are gripping and convincing."
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Roger Sutton (09/19/1995)
