The book brings you to a time before World War II, to the life of a young girl whose world is about to change forever. She lost loved ones, her home, all her possessions, and her dream to be a concert pianist. From the ages of nine till thirteen, Gita experienced hunger, hard work, and difficult living conditions. She had dreams of having a dress, a pair of shoes, and a real bed with a mattress and pillows. But most of all, she dreamed to return home to her beloved grandparents. These years have taught Gita to have an appreciation for everything good, to be compassionate to all people, and to tolerate adversity. She learned to understand that life is a battlefield, and you have to do your best to stand your ground, have an open mind, and conquer the difficulties. Then, you become a mensch.
