This was a good story and interesting, but since I have read a lot of books from this period of time this wasn't quite as good as some others but other not so hard core.  This story just proves that the people and even more so the children of this era lost a number of their years to the harsh realities they had to do to survive.  Children had to take on chores that either an adult couldn't or wouldn't go as told in this book.  The years this girl was stuck in Germany were horrible and when she got home her mother seemed either not wanting to know what she went through or just figured it was all over and tried to show her the wonderful things in the US.  Not sure if POWS,  Concentration Camp survivors, etc. what to talk about what went on during these times or possibly only to people that suffer the same thoughts because most people couldn't comprehend any of it.
