A heartwrenching story of courage and survival
This is one of the most moving and sensitive books I've ever read.I couldn't put it down.I shed many tears as I read of the hardships and tragedies Rose, Alex and their families endured.I rejoiced when thingswent well.The descriptions and the illustrations gave me an insight as tohow life was in Szatmar and in Budapest."Ruchele" is awonderful tribute to a family and I shall never forget it.I haverecommended it to all my friends. I think it is important for students ofall ages to read it.This time in history should never be forgotten.
