Fania's Heart by Anne Renaud
5.0
"Words have power.
There are words that injure and words that heal.
Then there are words that can save your life."
An unnamed 9 year old girl finds a tiny heart-shaped book in her mother's dresser. Thus begins the tale of her mother Fania, who was in Auschwitz during the war.
She spins a tale of sadness and heartbreak, and of a broken spirit in a broken time. She tells of how she focused on the good even amidst all of the bad.
FANIA'S HEART should be read by or to children everywhere early on in their lives, so that when they reach the right age, they're prepared for learning more in-depth about Hitler and Germany in school.
I got goosebumps reading this book. I even had some tears come to my eyes. FANIA'S HEART is a book about bravery and holding onto hope despite everything telling you to give up. Based off of an actual woman named Fania and her time spent in Auschwitz, it's a haunting yet hopeful tale that you won't want to miss out on.
