Description: Ruth was only seven years old when her father made her responsible for Imma (or Grandma). The scene was Warsaw, and the Levy family was intact. But the Nazi threat changed everything. The story of this Jewish family is told from Ruth's perspective as they flee, first to Paris, then southward through France to Italy. Their bravery and love for one another sustain them through tragedies on their perilous journey.
Notes: A novel.
