Based on the true account of Holocaust survivor Dita Kraus, this novel tells a story of bravery and perseverance in the face of unspeakable terror. In December 1943, fourteen-year-old Dita and her family are taken from the Terezín ghetto in Prague and imprisoned at Auschwitz. There, Jewish leader Fredy Hirsch entrusts Dita to protect the prisoners' secret library of smuggled books, a task that could mean death if she were caught. As the librarian of Auschwitz, Dita risks her life to preserve the magic of books.
