This book has been shortlisted in our annual CBCA Book Awards - THE children's book awards here. I haven't read it (although I have read its predecessor, 'Once' ) but apparently it focuses on the Holocaust. The Holocaust does not receive as much curriculum focus here as it appears to in the US and there is quite a bit of local-list discussion about its suitability for the primary/elementary sector. Many are saying they would reserve it for Yr 6, much like PG (parental guidance) rated movies. If you have this book in your collection, can you offer some guidance about its suitability for that younger audience please?
