Review: "An emotional and unforgettable read," even for adults! - I have the privilege of teaching B2-level English to a remarkable group of adult women from around the world. This summer, we read Number the Stars together as a book club. One of my students, a native Spanish speaker from Mexico, wrote the following review and gave me permission to share it: "Number the Stars, written by Lois Lowry, is a story that captivates from the very first page. Although it is a work of fiction, it is inspired by real events that took place during the Nazi occupation of Denmark, as well as by childhood memories of the author’s close friend Annelise—a name that likely inspired the names of the main character and her sister. The book is lovingly dedicated to her. This novel not only serves as an accessible introduction for young readers to learn about the Holocaust from a personal and relatable point of view, but also offers a deeply human and moving narrative told through the eyes of Annemarie, a Danish girl who unexpectedly finds herself entangled in a web of courage, secrets, and resistance. Lowry masterfully weaves together the tension of historical events with the innocence and bravery of childhood, taking readers on an emotional roller coaster—evoking fear, sorrow, hope, and admiration. Her writing is simple yet powerful, allowing both young and adult readers to connect genuinely with the characters. One of the book’s greatest strengths lies in its portrayal of heroism—not as something reserved for soldiers or adults, but as a quality found in ordinary people, even children, who choose to do what is right in the face of danger. More than a history lesson, Number the Stars is a powerful reflection on courage, friendship, and solidarity during dark times. Without a doubt, it’s an emotional and unforgettable read."
Review: I love this book! - I love this book! I read it because I was in a Number the Stars play and had never heard of it. But no time was wasted in reading this! I enjoyed every part, it was so well written + such a beautiful story! It is also pretty short so it’s easy to read in a couple days.

*by L***F on January 5, 2026*

Incredible. Incredible incredible book. An excellent read for all middle schoolers. I even recommend it as an easy read for highschoolers to understand the power we have as individuals to stand up for what is right. In a world where hatred to spread so easily, we need to teach our children to do the right thing … always.
