The best book ever!

I am only 13 and lately I have been interested in the Holocaust. Although i am catholic reading this book gave me a total diffrent look to the Holocaust. I read this book in only 3 days. This was so because just the details about the book made me think over how lucky they are to be here today. I finished the book today and thought to my self wow, i can't believe people would be treated in such a harsh way. I was so relieved when i read the ending with such intensity and could not be more happy for Bezo. If you are interested in the Holocaust then i suggest for you to read the book because it is awesome.

This is a great book. The plot is very interesting and keeps you reading. I wouldn't have thought that this was a true story. There is so much action and conflict in it, that it just doesn't seem possible, but it is. It's a miracle how these 45 people survived underground for such a long time when so many things couldn've gone wrong. It's a true story about survival and life during the hardest of times. I had to read this for English in 6th grade, and I usually don't like the required reading, but this is one exception. Mr. Mayer even wrote it in a way we could understand. I never had to use a dictionary once while reading. ;) He is a nice guy (he came to our school) and he really made this book a really great read.

I read this book in 6th grade and it was mandatory at my school. At first, I didn't wasn't to read it, but when I started it, it was very good and interesting to me, so I kept on reding until I was done.I loved this book very much, and I think you should enjoy it too.
