About this listen

Inspired by true events, David Safier's 28 Days: A Novel of Resistance in the Warsaw Ghetto is a harrowing historical YA that chronicles the brutality of the Holocaust.

Warsaw, 1942. Sixteen-year old Mira smuggles food into the ghetto to keep herself and her family alive. When she discovers that the entire ghetto is to be "liquidated" - killed or "resettled" to concentration camps - she desperately tries to find a way to save her family.

She meets a group of young people who are planning the unthinkable: an uprising against the occupying forces. Mira joins the resistance fighters who, with minimal supplies and weapons, end up holding out for 28 days, longer than anyone had thought possible.

This is an excellent book. I knew quite a bit about the Warsaw uprising but wow! The book was as if I was living it. I learned so much. Many of the characters we true. I was lucky enough to visit the memorial mound a 18 Mila St ...so hard to find ... it helped me understand what really happened. The bravery of these people is amazing ....again the betrayal of some of their own people unbelievable. I hope they never forgot their shame and betrayal.

Excellent
