Yellow Star Retelling


Author's Note: I wrote this retelling piece on Yellow Star, by Jennifer Roy.  I had in mind the main struggles Sylvia and her family went through.

In the book Yellow Star, a little girl named Sylvia and her family are forced to move into the Lodz ghetto in command of the Nazi's in 1939.  Her family has to deal with starvation, terrible climate, and overall, being safe. Sylvia is 1 out of 12 children left in the ghetto including her sister, and this sad, but interesting book is told through Sylvia's perspective. I would recommend this book to people who like the holocaust and World War 2 topics.
