....................,
By A Customer
This review is from: I Am David (Hardcover)
...............this was actually a pretty good book. There was a GOOD storyline, good ending and it showed what a child growing up in a concentration camp would act like and how they would see things differently from a normal child. The people he meets on his way to Denmark, all have fine and different characteristics and traits and all add some information and wisdom to David. Even the evil farmer who locked him in the barn had a positive efect on David's life even if it didn't seem like it at the time. This book is well explained and very descriptive. It shows what life was like during the time of concentration camps and is over all a good book.

A must read....................,
This review is from: I Am David (New Windmill) (Hardcover)
This story takes place in Europe after WWII, we find our main subject trapped in a prison/work camp for members of society that spoke out against the new government. Our young man is taken prisoner for what his father does and spends his very young years growing up in one of these camps. The movie centers around his friendship with another man in the camp, his escape, his experiances in camp and the outside world. The story is beautiful, and there are many twists and turns to capture the readers attention. However the story does end abruptly, as if the writer was interrupted. Overall, it was very good, my whole family enjoyed it.

An Excellent Read... A Touching Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: I Am David (Hardcover)
This book takes you on a very vivid and interesting trip across the human emotions as we follow this young boy (who grew up in a Concentration Camp) learn that there is joy in the world. Now although the ending seems slightly "clipped off", this book is an enjoyable read and I highly recommend this book. Especially to any teen readers.
