Twelve year old twins Pearl and Stasha arrive at Auschwitz in 1944. Because they are identical twins, the two girls become part of the notorious experiments of Joseph Mengele. The focus of the book is not on the horrors they face, but on the bond between the sisters and the hope and resilience they display in brutal circumstances. Although it is fiction, the book was inspired by the real-life experiences of twins Eva and Miriam Mozes. I recommend it!
