Chronicle Concering Books Ausländer

When Peter's parents are killed, he is sent to an orphanage in Warsaw. Then German soldiers take him away to be measured and assessed. They decide that Peter is racially valuable. He is Volksdeutscher: of German blood. With his blond hair, blue eyes, and acceptably proportioned head, he looks just like the boy on the Hitler-Jugend poster. Someone important will want to adopt Peter. They do. Professor Kaltenbach is very pleased to welcome such a fine Aryan specimen to his household. People will be envious. But Peter is not quite the specimen they think. He is forming his own ideas about what he is seeing, what he is told. Peter doesn't want to be a Nazi, and so he is going to take a very dangerous risk. The most dangerous risk he could possibly choose to take in Berlin in 1942.

Fascinating. Absolutely gripping.

I would say THE most amazing book I have read in a long time. I know I say that about every book mostly but I really loved this one.Okay. I've said it before. If you saw me on the bus reading this and you knew me pretty well, you would think 'Rebecca wouldn't read that kind of thing!' And it's true, I probably wouldn't but it's history. Which I L.O.V.E. Yes, it needed the dots. When I loved about this book, is that it is like your perfect guide to History GCSE. Everything I've covered in the

This would be a great book to read when looking at WW2 as a topic. Told from the perspective of an orphan from Poland bought in to Nazi Germany because he had Aryan looks, and being adopted into a prestigious Nazi family, it emphasises the contrast between wanting to conform and not agreeing with the regime. It would not be suitable for an audience younger than year 6 because of quite difficult themes and also some prior knowledge would be required. It would be great to contrast with something

This book is between 2.5 and 3 stars... The story is good and helpful to understand more of WW2 Germany, but slow in some places and very little suspense... Surprising ending which helped the book's story appeal

YA historical novel set in Nazi Germany. Very well-written and absolutely riveting. The story follows Peter - an orphan in Nazi-occupied Warsaw who has German blood. The Nazis decide he is racially valuable, and take him to Germany to be raised as a Hitler Youth by a German foster family.At first, Peter is grateful for his improved life - better food, better clothes, better education. But he soon sees how totally the Nazi government controls not only the foreigners (auslanders) and Jews, but

I really loved this book! It was extremely touching and well written. There a lot of books flying around under the topic of World War 2 and this book, though on the same topic, gives us a different outlook/insight on it. Reading this book I felt as if I was there with Peter (main character) Though he is in fact Polish he looks like the perfect German (Volkdeutscher - of German blood)I also loved this book because it's a very believable if not likely story and is something I plan on reading again

Trigger warnings: Antisemitism, racism, death of a parent (in the past), car accident.Based on the blurb, this sounded intriguing. Unfortunately, it proved to be more meh than anything for me. While the concept of a Polish boy sent to live in Germany following the death of his parents was definitely unique, the characters lacked emotional depth for me. The writing was pretty choppy and it didn't always feel finished. That said, it's a pretty unique viewpoint - a teenager in Nazi Germany who's
