  A great children's book that this adult found amazing. Naturally, it's a quick read for any adult, I'll keep it for my nieces to read as appropriate. There's a small holocaust museum in Tokyo begging for artifacts to set up their (made up mostly of children and the museum's curator) program and a show. No other museums will give or loan anything at to the Japanese murseum. When the do finally receive something, it is literally "Hana's Suitcase". These children and their curator throw themselves into the pursuit of finding Hana or at least learning her story as a Jewish girl in Hitler's Europe. I found it an amazing that these children knew so little about the Holocaust and, with their curator's help, really took to the story of Hana's life. As an Amserican adult, I found the irony and the newness of it to another generation - a generation who's great-grandparents sided with Hitler an inspiring story.

  • How did the image on site compare with the actual product? It looks the same
  • How accurate was the on site description of the product? I never feel Overstock provides near enough information on their books. However, that can be found elsewhere for the savings.

  Terrible book. Content just glossed over the important facts and left out many issues. Just another scam for Karen to get easy money using her fathers name. She has nothing to offer that hasn't already been heard from the media and other news reports. REALLY glossed over her involvement in the drug ring she started and that put her father back in prison. Another easy money scam just like this book. She is all about making herself look good and not telling the real truth. It is her story so I guess she can tell it anyway she wants and I was stupid enough to buy it thinking it would have some real grit and substance but NO!!
