Summary: Very Moving
Comment: Attending a german school in 8th grade ('95), I first read this book (in it's original german) for a book rewiew and thoroughly enjoyed it. The story about a girl named Alice describes what it was like for Jews and others to travel to the concetration camps on cattle cars with the unending thirst, heat/cold, death, excrement and fear. It has a double importance for me because Mrs. Pausewang came to our area library and gave a speech on her writing. She is actually a surviving victim of the holocaust herself so she wrote this with experience. The end of the book is a really touching one as is the rest of the story. This story was one of my first favorite books. In fact, I liked it so much, I had my dad pick up a copy of it on a return trip to Germany so I would have it. Now, while doing research for my college Holocaust class I found out that it is translated into English so more people are able to read this wonderful story. Now I can finally recommend it to everyone.

Summary: Dying in a Concentration Camp
Comment: The Final Journey by Gudrun Pausewang Morton, Mack
A Review by Mack
This story is story of sadness. A story about The Final Journey that millions of Jews, Gays, and Lesbians etc.. took. Millions of people died in the Holocaust and not many are still alive to tell the story. This was a story of a strong girl, with a strong will power. During WWI there were hellish deeds going on in Germany. This young girl was put through hell and back. (...) I am not going to spoil the whole book but it was ok I wouldn't recommend reading it. The ending is a real hairaiser though.

Summary: Amazing
Comment: Eleven year old Alice is loved and spoiled endlessly. But when her and her grandfather are thrust onto a cattle truck with no idea of where they`re going, everything in Alice`s life changes. This book is so horrifyingly realistic. The description of the things and people surrounding Alice in the cattle truck is terrifying. You actually feel like your in the disgusting cattle truck, feeling scared and confused. And when Alice first deals with the delemma of death and the miracle of birth you feel her emotions jumping off the page. This book is really amazing in it`s reality of the horrors of the Holocaust.
