5.0 out of 5 stars From War to War, October 19, 2005
Can you imagine living through World War II in a cellar, then going to a place where everyone thinks you're weird? This was Avremelah's life in the book The Boy From Over There.
Avremeleh was taken from his homeland in Poland, and brought to a kibbutz in Palestine when Israel was gaining its independence. There he faced culture shock, prejudice, and another war. Why did his cousin Rami hate him so much?
Tamar Bergman draws you into Avremeleh's story with outstanding dialogue and superb descriptions. It is easy to identify with the children on the kibbutz because they are so similar to children of today. They not only fought and argued, but also cared for each other.
The Boy From Over There is an adventurous historical novel about the power of friendship. You won't want to put it down until you reach the end. I was ready to jump into the book and take part in the action. It's a perfect read-aloud for all school-age children.
