Sunday Times Children's Book Of The Week

Once. by Morris Gleitzman

Making fiction about the Holocaust is always problematic. Authors who exploit the event primarily to invest their work with importance are beneath contempt. Yet, occasionally, solutions to the challenging question of how a children�s book might be produced on this subject do add to the empathy of a new generation without being a travesty. NICOLETTE JONES
