I chose this photo because it is a family. In this time family was everything. Syvia loved her family deeply.

Why did you write this book? Do you have a grandma or great grandma that had to hide? How do you know how to write everything that makes the book come alive? Your book is really good and inspiring. I wish you had a sequal to your book. Thank you a lot for writing this book. Hope you write back!
