Clara's War by Kathy Kacer

Clara's family have been living a very happy life when the Nazis invade. Like other Jewish people, they are soon sent to Terezin, a walled town in Czechoslovakia. Despite the hardships, Clara finds wonderful new friends. An announcement that auditions are being held for a children's opera, Brundibar, has the musical Clara eager for a part. However, when she learns that her special friend, Jacob, is involved in a dangerous escape plan, Clara has some new challenges to face.

Kathy Kacer's writing has earned her numerous prizes, including the Silver Birch, Red Maple, Hackmatack, and the American Jewish Library Association Award. The Secret of Gabi's Dresser, the first book in Second Story Publications' Holocaust Memory Series, was published in 1999. She's written four more books in the series since then. Kacer, a former psychologist who worked with problematic teenagers, now writes for young readers about the Holocaust and speaks about it across the country. Kacer and her family live in Toronto.
