Wrath Becomes Her by Aden Polydoros

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


In the intro the author explains how as a young reader she wanted to see Jewish youth portrayed as more than victims in stories set in WWII and the Holocaust. This book is intense and dark, but looks at groups of rebels who left hiding to fight. There are super natural elements and the violence of war is depicted in a way that I would recommend this book for high school students only. However, it is a wonderful addition to other Holocaust literature that focuses on hiding and/or camps, and could open deeper discussions about the role of citizens in the Holocaust.
