for Next Year in Jerusalem by Howard Schwartz and Neil Waldman
From the Publisher
Inge Dornewald and Lieselotte Vessely are best friends, the kind of friends who almost always know what the other is thinking. Now, however, they are both thirteen and it is 1937 in Vienna. Inge is Jewish and Lieselotte, at the insistence of her Nazi father, is in the Hitler Youth. Their friendship has become unwise, even dangerous to sustain. Yet in a world of increasing terror and despair, as the situation of Jews in Austria becomes more and more desperate, Inge and Lieselotte secretly struggle against the `Devil in Vienna` to keep their friendship alive. Ages 10+
