BUT CAN THE PHOENIX SING? By: Christa Laird
Christa Laird makes a powerful statement in But Can The Phoenix Sing? Can a person be dynamic after a terrifying experience in World War Two? The book is based on a true story of the life of Misha Edelman.
The book starts when 15-years-old Misha Edelman is send to the front line of Poland during World War Two to help Jewish people. His mission is to save people from different concentration camps around Poland. He meets amazing people: Eva, Henryk, Vasily, and Doctor Korczak. They become a "family", but there are many obstacles in his life's journey. There are many unexpected events that happen in his journey to Warsaw. Is he going to survive? "My whole body was mass of pain." Is he going to be himself again? "Polish Jew, protégé of Dr. Korczak, ex-partisan and resistance worker." Is he going to find another love?
If you want to find answers for all these questions you should definitely read this book! This is one of the best books I have ever read. It is extremely moving and it keeps you guessing the whole time. I love this book because you can learn a lot about World War Two. I deeply recommend this book to both kids as adults. It is just amazing how brave a little boy can be and how much courage he has for his country. If you love to read sterling war stories you should definitely read this one! I guaranty you will not regret it...you might even learn a valuable lesson!

I thought this book was very interesting. One of the reasons I liked this book is because it tells about partisans who fought against the Nazis. All the events in this book are descriptive. Reading about what different things the partisans did was very interesting and exciting.

This book I thought moved very slow. It was alright. It had a good plotline with much detail, and although it was slow moving, it kept my interest. Maybe there was a little too much detail. These kind of books interest me a little. My favorite part was when they were decribing there times in the concentration camp.
