Historia
In the last months of the Nazi occupation of Poland, two children are left by their father and stepmother to find safety in a dense forest. Because their real names will reveal their Jewishness, they are renamed "Hansel" and "Gretel". They wander in the woods until they are taken in by Magda, an eccentric and stubborn old woman called "witch" by the nearby villagers.

Revisado: 06-22-21
AVery unique version of the lives of Hanzel and Gretel. I really was fascinated by this version of their lives. The book Title indicates this is a True Story and I am left wondering about that. A s an extremely different Hansel and Gretel Ienjoyed the book, but knowing the history of the Hitler Era it is a sad book also.

Historia
In her national bestseller Alice I Have Been, Melanie Benjamin imagined the life of the woman who inspired Alice in Wonderland. Now, in this jubilant new novel, Benjamin shines a dazzling spotlight on another fascinating female figure whose story has never fully been told: a woman who became a nineteenth century icon and inspiration—and whose most daunting limitation became her greatest strength.

Mr. and Mrs. Tom Thumbs surprising biographies.
Revisado: 03-19-21
I found this book surprising, enjoyable, and yet frustrating as well. I plan to read it a few more times in order to understand Mrs. Tom Thumb better.. She was a surprising young woman of many complex emotions, from deep love to paralyzing fears, both founded on deep reaLities.

Too Much and Never Enough
Revisado: 07-15-20
Mary Trump, author of this book and a cousin of our current president Donald Trump, has written an excellent biography of President Trump's life and interactions within their family.
It is an eye opening book and helped me to better understand Donald Trump himself. I was surprised to discover how some of the roots of his adult behaviors formed and developed as he grew up. Her book explains a lot of who our President is now in his adult years, I highly recommend reading this book to all.

Historia
Perhaps the most famous and most destructive eruption in modern history was the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa. Even without the instantaneous forms of communication that are now available, the world watched in wonder for new updates about a tiny South Pacific island. And though few of them would ever go there, Krakatoa remained a source of fascination for the much of the world for the next 50 years.

Loved it and was breathless and amazed at all the turns and twists as the story wove itself out in unexpected directions. Glad it is different from the movie, which is also dramatic. It's like two amazing tales , both leaving one breathless. Will humans survive?, ?, ?

Lost families
Revisado: 10-07-19
The author's history of his search for his lost family mrmbers is spellbinding and deeply heart rending for the tragic ,loses of family members. Children stolen from mothers, some found and reclaimed, some not heard of until many years later. The authors unraveling of all these mystoris slowly clears up as family members begin to be found by him and by each other. A book one can not put down until the last word is told. L. Lee Dreier

Through Novembers Winter Air, The Indian Cries: The Most Powerful Indian Story in American History. In this audiobook I have tried to make a faithful representation of Quanah Parker, his background and associates; to give an understanding portrayal of his life and work. Historical material has been carefully studied and followed, checked with members of the family; and I have a personal acquaintance with much of the territory and some of the particular places involved.

Great narrator and excellent author. Love all of her books.
Wish she could also write a book about a child escaping death from a home country and the USA constitution used to save her life. a good way for kids to learn the safety laws of our constitution. They are amazing laws.

This book is the among the best books I have listened to. In great detail, well researched, the author shares with us the lives and, even deaths, of those sacrificed their own lives to save others and to stand up against the evils of Hitler's Nazi regime. Hard to put down. LLD.

Historia
In Little Women, Mr. March went off to war. But in real life it was Jo (Louisa May Alcott herself, an avowed abolitionist) who traveled to Washington to nurse Northern soldiers. Despite the subject matter, her account is full of amusing anecdotes as she makes her way alone from Concord to DC, trying to finagle a free ticket and convinced she will drown during the journey.

Louisa May Alcott's heartfelt book.
Revisado: 03-18-19
I loved this book, laughed and cried to this true story. Highly recommended.
Added note: The writer's 19th century vocabulary is a wonderful way to learn many additional english words. I grew up reading Little Woman and other such books. As a result I now have a wonderful time reading and listening to such rich, enjoyable stories. No thesaurus needed back then. People actually used all those types of words in their daily speaking and writing; as also seen in other books of that era such as Swiss family Robinson, etc.
