The Book Thief
By Markus Zusak
Trying to make sense of the horrors of World War II, Death relates the story of Liesel--a young German girl whose book-stealing and story-telling talents help sustain her family. With lyrical prose, memorable characters, and authentic dialogue, Zusak's richly nuanced stories capture and hold teens' attention from the first word to the last.
