Don't Tell the Nazis

By: Marsha Forchuk Skrypuch

Narrated by: Kathleen McInerney

Marsha Forchuk Skrypuch (author of Making Bombs for Hitler) crafts a story of ultimate compassion and sacrifice based on true events during WWII.

The year is 1941. Krystia lives in a small Ukrainian village under the cruel - sometimes violent - occupation of the Soviets. So when the Nazis march into town to liberate them, many of Krystia's neighbors welcome the troops with celebrations, hoping for a better life.

But conditions don't improve as expected. Krystia's friend Dolik and the other Jewish people in town warn that their new occupiers may only bring darker days.

The worst begins to happen when the Nazis blame the Jews for murders they didn't commit. As the Nazis force Jews into a ghetto, Krystia does what she can to help Dolik and his family. But what they really need is a place to hide. Faced with unimaginable tyranny and cruelty, will Krystia risk everything to protect her friends and neighbors?

Amazing Book

This is one of the best books I’ve read, it has so much emotion and character.

Great book but unsatisfying ending, 14+

Great book but if you don’t like gore and skin crawling details this might not be for you, it would rate this a 14 and over book or in the teen section, besides that and the ending it’s a great overall book that I would recommend to history lovers.
