Literature -- 5 stars
Noa is 16 years old, a Jew and pregnant by a Nazi soldier. Her family of circus performers forces her to give up her baby. Unable to forgive them, she is living above a railway station when she discovers a box car full of babies, steals one, and disappears. Returning home, hoping for acceptance, she finds her family gone. In order to survive, she joins a competing circus that agrees to hide her and the child. Suspense, love, protection, betrayal, and a tear jerker ending. A beautiful book.
