    Is anybody familiar with this book? From a review I read, I know it is about the experiences of a young JW girl in

    Nazi Germany, but I was wondering if anybody here has any opinion on the book. Especially if it would be the sort of

    book to give to a JW.

    The front cover:

    It is already a popular book in Jehovah's Witness circles, my family already have a copy of it as it's "Society Approved". Don't interpret this as a non-recommendation though - it's a very good read nonetheless.

    I read it a few years ago (when I still believed JWs had the truth) and really enjoyed it. Although I did experience twinges of guilt when I compared my faith to hers. But it is a remarkable story of a little girl's steadfastness in the face of persecution. I would recommend it.
