Summary
When Marek tries to help a Jew sneak back into the Warsaw Ghetto, he becomes trapped for a day in the midst of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Marek has never thought about the Jewish people who live in the Warsaw Ghetto near his homeâuntil he helps his stepfather smuggle food and guns through the sewer to sell there. Even then, he does not truly understand what it means to be isolated, persecuted, and faced with almost certain death at the hands of the Nazis. Then Marek meets a Jewish man on the runâand, in helping him, is thrust into the middle of an uprising.
