I just finished reading _Briar Rose_ by Jane Yolen. It is a powerfully moving story which shows the brutality of the Holocaust intertwined with the tale of sleeping beauty as told by a loving grandmother. The narration can be harsh and I would not give it to all students but I consider it a must have book. Be sure to read it if you haven't Frederick Muller, Halsted Middle School Library Librarian 59 Halsted Street voice (201) 383-7554 fmuller@planet.net Newton, NJ 07860 FAX (201) 383-7432
