Resilience: Coming of Age in World War II Germany (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781696288972)

It's Munich, Germany, in 1945, the day American tanks are rolling in. Anneliese's father finds a white sheet, ready to hang from the attic window, hoping he times it right. Too early, German SS could hang him from the nearest tree. Too late, the Allied forces could shoot. And so begins this memoir. This is a timeless tale of war and death. A time when children return to school one fall to find the crucifix in their classroom replaced with a picture of the Führer. A time of fear and deprivation. A time of inventiveness by children who want to dance and wear new clothes, but instead have childhoods filled with bandages and bombs.
