"A shining story of a young girl who struggles to come of age and find her place in a world fraught with danger." --Susan Campbell Bartoletti, Newbery Honor-winning author of Hitler Youth

* Winner of the Youth Prize at the Angoul me International Comics Festival (voted by readers) * Winner of the Art misia Prize for Historical Fiction * Winner of the Andersen Premio Prize *

This middle grade graphic novel is an excellent choice for tween readers in grades 7 to 8, especially during homeschooling. It's a fun way to keep your child entertained and engaged while not in the classroom.

A magnificent narrative inspired by a true survival story that asks universal questions about a young girl's coming of age story, her identity, her passions, and her first loves.

At the S vres Children's Home outside Paris, Rachel Cohen has discovered her passion--photography. Although she hasn't heard from her parents in months, she loves the people at her school, adores capturing what she sees in pictures, and tries not to worry too much about Hitler's war. But as France buckles under the Nazi regime, danger closes in, and Rachel must change her name and go into hiding.

As Catherine Colin, Rachel Cohen is faced with leaving the S vres Home--and the friends she made there--behind. But with her beautiful camera, Catherine possesses an object with the power to remember. For the rest of the war, Catherine bears witness to her own journey, and to the countless heroes whose courage and generosity saved the lives of many, including her own.

Based on the author's mother's own experiences as a hidden child in France during World War II, Catherine's War is one of the most accessible historical graphic novels featuring a powerful girl since Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi--perfect for fans of Markus Zusak's The Book Thief, Anne Frank, or Helen Keller.

Includes a map and photographs of the real Catherine and her wartime experiences, as well as an interview with author Julia Billet.

"Many of the settings are beautifully detailed, and the characters undeniably expressive. Catherine's ability to find beauty in the world makes for a forward-looking read." --Booklist *(starred review)*

"This story will make readers want to join the Resistance. Characters are drawn so vividly that, long afterward, readers will remember their names." --Kirkus

Love it! Both sides, soft, cool and cozy
I am a very HOT sleeper and I love this blanket! I have a couple other cooling blankets including the Rest brand which is now extremely expensive. This blanket is just as good as Rest's, if not better because it has two different sides. The cooling side does stay very cold to the touch and the microfiber side is very cozy and snuggy without overheating me. I like the weight of the blanket it's not too heavy but it's not too light or thin. Even my cat loves this blanket! She has a lot of blankets/ places to sleep but often I find her on my bed curled up on this blanket in particular. Just be sure to always wash in cold water and dry without any heat. I wash mine in cold and either use the no heat cycle of my dryer or more often air dry it, hanging it over my bedroom door with a fan pointed on it. Because of the material it dries quickly.

Edredón de pluma de ganso
Color: White/All Season, Size: Queen
I’m extremely happy with this comforter. The quality is outstanding — it feels soft, fluffy, and luxurious, just like a hotel duvet. The cotton fabric is breathable and comfortable, making it perfect for all seasons. It keeps me warm at night without feeling too heavy or overheating. The stitching and overall construction are very well done, and it looks beautiful on the bed. It also arrived well packaged and expanded nicely after opening. The Queen size fits perfectly and gives the bed a clean, elegant look. For the price, this is an amazing value. Highly recommended if you want a cozy, high-quality comforter that feels premium!
