Anne Frank told you about her two years in hiding, let Irene tell you about the whole war and the the whole war and beyond.From whistling bombs and hidden Jewish neighbors to Nazi youth bullies, go behind the lines to civilian life in My World War 2 Childhood. In the second book, step through the Iron Curtain with Irene dressed as a boy. Hop the rails pretending to look for her father as Irene barters in black markets, smuggles food from West Germany, and struggles for her family's survival under Soviet Russian heels. In the final book, Irene discards her disguise for nursing school where politics rule all. Even the hospital is dangerous due to comrades eager to inform on Irene as she plans a freedomless future with her beau. Irene's first missteps land her as forced labor in a uranium mine. Her last misstep launches her on a harrowing flight for the border and freedom beyond the Iron Curtain.
