Summary: | "Little Frits finds his life totally changed when his father becomes seriously ill, the family moves country, and his mother places him and his brother in an abusive children's home. WWII begins, and the Netherlands is occupied. Bombing becomes his lullaby, and friends and family are murdered in Auschwitz. Frits experiences illness, terror, overwhelming sadness, and rage. But when he grows up and is deprived of his lifelong dream, he reaches the end of his rope. Should Frits hold onto anger or shake off the fetters of his wrath, embrace love, and start afresh?"--Back cover |
