Tani (USA: CA) (2021/10/21):
This is the true story of a zoo in Poland that--after the zoo was bombed--saved the lives of over 300 people during the Holocaust by hiding them in the empty animal cages. I found it very absorbing, although sad in places. It also taught me a few things I hadn't know about what the blurb on the back refers to as "the disturbing obsessions at the core of Nazism."
The book contains a section of explanatory details, a bibliography, a vocabulary index, and a Reading Group Guide at the end. Also a small section of black and white photos in the middle.
