'This is a very accessible
way of telling the Holocaust story to today's teenagers. It focuses
on young people doing what they always do whatever the circumstance:
flirting, bending the rules, helping each other out, smuggling in
illicit objects (in this case a collection of puppets that they
can express their underlying anxieties with) though they are experiencing
one of the twentieth century's most inhumane events. The black and
white pencil drawings are beautifully done and very sensitive, yet
with a cool edge deriving from today's best comic book illustration,
and there are a number of touches of humour as well.' Amazon
