Someone Named Eva by Joan M. Wolf
I thought this book was a great book to assign your class to sum up the World War II lesson. The book, Someone Named Eva, is by Joan M. Wolf. The main setting is in Poland. The family of six this story is about there is Milada, Babichka, Mama, Papa, Anechka, and Jaroslav. One day the Nazis busted in and arrested them and separated the boys and the girls.
Then the girls were taken to a school gym and all the young girls with blonde hair were inspected and taken away from their family. The girls that were inspected and taken away were trained to be young German girls, or Aryans, and they were given new names, I bet you are wondering what Milada's new name is , but to find that out you will have to buy this book. When her training was finished she was taken to Germany and she got to see what her new life would be like. The next day was the day the adoption day was starting. The next day was the day she was adopted. To find out more on her life and the struggles she went through you will have to buy this great book which I highly recommend you do.
