The strengths in this story to me is the whole entire story! In my perspective there were not any weaknesses to me. The entire story is just great!
Yes, I do recomend this book. I recomend this book because this true story is during World War Two. It tells you how a girl felt and was experiencing. I recomend this book to everyone!
