Great piece of Historical Fiction,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Night Journey (Puffin story books) (Paperback)
This was a really great book that kept me reading for a few days. It really showed me what it was like for a Jewish girl to live through turn-of-the-century Russia. This was a summer reading book for me at school, but I'm certainly glad I read it! I would reccommend this book to any and all who are looking for a great read!

NOT about the Nazis,
This review is from: The Night Journey (Turtleback)
This book is well-written and deals with a number of interesting issues, including racism, genocide, inter-generational relationships, and adolescence. The language is rich and the tale is engaging. The book is NOT, however, about the Nazis. The plot follows an escape from CZARIST RUSSIA.
