TUESDAY'S CHILD

Not all teens on the street are runaways. Some are throw-aways. "...teenage readers will appreciate a novel that speaks to them as adults and not mindless readers."

Ruth Mendenberg, a survivor of the Buchenwald concentration camp, has risked her life to help smuggle a group of refugees into Palestine. Now she wants to forget the past and forge a new life. But violence is escalating all around her as Arabs and Jews disagree over the partitioning of Palestine. Ruth will be forced to fight -- and maybe even kill -- in defense of a long-awaited prize: a place to call home. In this sequel to After the War, award-winning author Carol Matas tells the story of one girl's courage during the tumultuous events leading to the birth of the State of Israel. (from Amazon.com)
