McClelland, known for collaborating with survivors of conflicts, worked with Mariichyn (now a refugee in Canada) and consulted members of Mariichyn's and Buchwald's families. The meticulous storytelling, occasionally supplemented with sections of straightforward historical content, unfurls slowly in mesmerizing detail before a fascinating conclusion. The afterword offers additional context and includes illuminating photos of the book's subjects and Leizer's correspondence. Powerful, heroic, and inspiring.\"-- \n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e, starred review \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"This title shows readers the struggle that Ukraine has endured throughout its history, while also providing a personal perspective for two families and their urge to survive. The title discusses trauma and how it impacts the body and mind, which is a perspective that is not always explored in juvenile nonfiction... A great addition for middle and high school nonfiction collections, especially for collections where World War II history or narrative nonfiction is popular.\"-- \n\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBiographical Note\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSusan McClelland\u003c\/b\u003e is an award winning journalist and the author of more than ten books, many for young adult readers, including \n\u003ci\u003eBoy from Buchenwald\u003c\/i\u003e, a Kirkus Best YA Biography and Memoir and a Sydney Taylor Award Notable, \n\u003ci\u003eEvery Falling Star\u003c\/i\u003e, and \n\u003ci\u003eThe Bite of the Mango\u003c\/i\u003e.
