Sky: A Great Book,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Sky (Paperback)
This book is really good for all ages. I read it for a book report and the shortness of the chapters and the promptness of which Hanneke presents the information makes it an enjoyable book to read. The prison parts really show you how Germans treated their prisoners. Very truthful, good book.

Story of a Girl Living the Holocaust,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Sky (Paperback)
Sky is a true story about a girl named Hanneke Ippisch during the Holocaust. It gives you some details about the Holocaust that are sometimes left out in books; like how some people tried to help the Jews. There were many resistance groups that hid, fed, and rescued the Jews from the Nazi soldiers. Hanneke Ippisch writes a wonderful autobiography that has somewhat personal stories in it. She tells about her family, some of the people she helped, and what happened to her while she was in jail. She also includes some details about her child life and how she felt about the war. I would definitely recommend this book to children curious about the Holocaust and war in Europe. It has a couple stories in it, but it's mostly facts about her life. If you like to read on more of a story line though, this book isn't for you.

Book Review,
By Ashley (Montgomery, PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sky (Paperback)
The book Sky by Hanneke Ippisch is a very good book. It is a non-fiction book. The book Sky is a review of Hanneke's life during the war. I reccomend this book to anyone who likes to read and learn things about the Holocaust. Also, people who like to read picture books should read it too, because there are many pictures in the book of actual things that Hanneke found and places she stayed.

Sky,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sky (Paperback)
One of the most touching stories about a girls courage during World War II is the book Sky. Sky is a story that always keeps you thinking what is going to happen to Hanneke, the main character, day after day as she helps Jews escape from Holland alive. She changes her identity and makes illegal trips across the border, along with risking her life in order to save others from Nazis. She is then caught and must find a way to survive. I think this is one of the best books I have ever read. Not only do I like autobiographies, I enjoy this story since is shows an example of heroism to many people. Hanneke shows that she had the courage to risk her life and that she had little fear against the Nazis. I cant really relate this book because I have never really done anything illegal in order to help someone. Like Hanneke, I have never been in jail before. I would recommend this book to someone who enjoys autobiographies, but someone who loves adventurous stories, full of surprises and suspense.

The book Sky is a true story of courage during World War II. Hanneke Ippisch is the person telling the story. She is fifteen years old girl who joins the Dutch resistance and gets taken to prison. Sh ehad to figure out her own way to survive. The story is set in Zeppelin, Holland in 1929. It leads you through Hanneke Ippisch's wholee life story during the war.I would reccomend this book to any middle school student who is interested in learning about World War II. I liked the book Sky because it is an action filled book of courage of Hanneke Ippisch who was in the Dutch resistance. I liked the book and I hope you will as well. |
