Summary: |
The author contributes a moving and strikingly illustrated memoir of her experience of being a "hidden child" in Holland during World War II and its far-reaching effect. |
Teaching Ideas: |
Compare this book with a similar one Hidden Child by Millman or The Diary of Anne Frank. A Venn diagram or a matrix with categories such as relationships, conditions, feelings, and daily life would provide material for discussion or writing. Readers may be intrigued with the indirect use of photographs by both Jacobsen and Millman. Readers may want to focus on the relationship of the author and her parents as a way to grasp the emotional hardships imposed by their separate kinds of hiding. Students could write unsent letters from Ruth to her parents. |
