In My Hands by Irene Gut Opdyke

Usually I wouldn't chose to read something about the Holocaust because of all the sad feelings it overwhelms me with. When I heard that this was about a rescuer I decided that I really wanted to get into this book. I wanted to know how it was done and I was happy that this wasn't all about death and destruction. As I began reading I was very surprised at how different it was from so many other Holocaust stories. It made me feel so many different emotions and I became close with Irene as I read on. She did so many amazing things. I really like this book a lot and I am glad that I decided to read it.
