Another true account told in first person by the young protagonist. This account, however, unlike Year of Impossible Goodbyes, does not delve into the atrocities that are committed, but more concerns itself with how the protagonist deals with having to stay in hiding for years in a small room; her thoughts, feelings, observations, and relationships with family, friends, and strangers, and with betrayal from people who she thought dear to her. This may be one account that could be shared with young ones, but sensitively. The protagonist’s strength of spirit and faith in people and the world shown in the day-in and day-out boring existence she must resolve herself to, shows how courage and love can transcend, though not erase, even the horrors of war. The book reads like a fiction novel and is sure to catch the hearts of many readers. Warning, some language may offend some readers.
I read this book many, many, years, ago (1975) when I was young and it moved me so much I never forgot the story or the book. My son needed a book to read for school and I felt this would be a good one for him, even though it is about girls. He is very interested in the events surrounding World War II and likes to read fiction and non-fiction about it. He read this book and it was also very emotional for him. The fact that the family did not realize the scope of the war, or how horrific it really was hit home with him. The frustration and depression of the girls was understood by a 12 year old boy (going on 40) and the fact that the Gentile family put their lives at risk to hide the girls really enforced the idea that it is sometimes difficult to do the right thing, but you do what is right no matter.He thinks this is a book that will stay with him, too. It stayed with me (I remembered the name of after all those years, and the story line) and I cannot say enough about it.
Parents can safely introduce the subject of the Holocaust with this book even when their children are in elementary school. Johanna Reiss has in precise language and an authentic voice introduced complex characters and plots. She steer clears of generalizations and stereotypes (such as “all Germans were evilâ€). And she avoids comparisons of pain.She doesn’t romanticize history by excluding dramatic intensity and confusion, two things to which adolescents easily relate; and she doesn’t overemphasize heroic tales or the worst aspects of human nature; nor imply that there were as many courageous rescuers as there were villains. The Upstairs Room reflects the turbulent times of WW II, as well as the turbulent time in an adolescent’s life.
A book from my childhood, now shared with my daughters. We bought several copies to give away as gifts as well. For readers 9 and up. We will give our copies to sister families, families of Dutch descent, (the sheltering family is strict Dutch Christian) and Jewish friends. Very good for exploring the sister relationship and what it means to grow up under truly challenging circumstances. I loved this book when I was young. So did my 10 year-old daughter when she read it just recently. Her 8-year-old sister still finds anything about the Holocaust too upsetting even though both sisters survive the German occupation in this book. Still, when the time is right it will be easier to start her WWII education with this book than with Anne Frank's deeply sad story.
This was my absolute favorite book when I was in school. I remembered the basic story, but am so glad I read it again. I still love it and am looking forward to reading the sequel; I didn't even know there was one. If you're a history buff, or like Anne Frank's story, you need to read this. You'll be glad you did.
The Upstairs Room is the true story of a child who was hidden from the Nazis in a room for two years by a family who understood that discovery of their deed would lead to their certain death. This young child had to remain quiet and subdue her normal impulses to run and play or even to just be outdoors on a beautiful day! She also withstood the misery of not having enough to eat or clothes to wear during frigid cold winters.But it is not a dark and dreary tale, because she found beauty and goodness in her surroundings as only a child could. Ms. Reiss created a heartwarming book, with such honesty and openness. We might see so much through the eyes of a child, beginning with gratitude for all that we take for granted.
"The Upstairs Room" is an excellent read. Told from the perspective of a young girl, this should be required reading for children of a similar age. The story introduces the Holocost in a way that young readers may especially be able to relate to. The protagonist, being only a child, has little understanding of the real dangers of the situation. Having forced to live through gradually worsening conditions, Anne and her sister start to get restless and reckless, especially when German soldiers move into the home they are hiding in. As an adult reader, I found it to be a bit simplistic, however, the author's original intended audience was her own children, so I can not find fault with this. Older readers may especially find the humanity in the supporting characters of this story to be inspiring. In addition to a tale based on the first hand account of the author, this account also reveals the courage of the family that originally took in the girls, the constant fears of the family that gambled with their own lives to kept the girls hidden, the stupid risks taken by all for what might be a frivolous desire, the scary consequences of that choice, and the pride of these "simple farmers". I especially liked the end of the story.
Great Historical Fiction based off of a true story in Johanna Reiss' childhood. It was heart wrenching, interesting, and really captures the emotions.
