The Dog in the Wood

(3) 4-6 The Russian occupation of Germany after World War II throws ten-year-old Fritz's life into turmoil--beginning with the deaths of his Nazi sympathizer grandparents, who opt to commit suicide rather than face the new regime. Based on the author's father's childhood, this moving novel makes a worthy addition to the body of WWII literature for children. An author's note is appended.
