My Opinion
I love this book because it is very interesting of how there culture is different by there language, yes its hard to read but you can compare it to our language by finding important words. i would recommend it because it is a good story for world war 2. It is also a good book because i compare all the things she has to my stuff in her house. I can tell she likes school to because she is in the choir and loves her teachers. i would recommend this book because it is a great way to learn how french families lived during the war.

Cherbourg, France
problems character faced
Suzanne faced problems such as moving out of her house during a bomb raid in her town, her friend wont talk to her, and only can eat one type of food the rest of the war that she hates.
