Casanova’s story is brilliantly crafted and her characters are rich and
vibrant. Readers follow along with Marit as she deals with the emptiness caused
by being separated from her family. But Marit fills that emptiness with the
needed courage to fight the Nazis on her own terms. The theme of this story is
that even in a world being torn apart by war, many individuals still find inner
strength to fight insurmountable odds in their own small and simple ways. Many
of the experiences described in the book are based on true events. The Klipfish Code can be an excellent
resource in the home or classroom for lessons on World War II.
From my years as a book reviewer for Children's Book and Media Review, I know it's tricky to navigate the reading world to find "safe harbors" for our imaginations. So I have created this blog to guide young readers to wholesome literature and to highlight the authors who create it. I hope you enjoy the literary destinations ahead!
