Book 15: The Girl in the Green Sweater

Finished: March 10
Pages: 288

The Diary of Anne Frank is much better. I found this memoir to be repetitive, though the story should have been very interesting. In Poland, three families survived the occupation of Lvov by living in the sewers, saved by three sewer workers, including Leopold Socha, a former thief. The girl in the green sweater is the narrator, Krystyna Chiger, and her green sweater, was given to her by her grandmother, who did not survive the liquidation of Lvov to join them in the sewers. The green sweater now hangs in the Holocaust museum in Washington D. C., which is pretty cool.

Good Reading,
Caitlin
