When WWII began in 1939, Lydia Friedl was just eight years old. Her father was taken away from his family to fight for Nazi Germany in a war her family didn't agree with. Then one day the war came to her front door and affected her life in a profound way. In what was called the Schweinfurt-Regensburg Mission, Lydia's village was turned into a war zone, and her mother was soon jailed for her disapproval of Hitler. Lydia's family had to persevere and protect each other to survive. Lydia learned that some aspects of life cannot be controlled, but through love and determination she could rise above the struggles.
