Felix leaves an orphanage to search for his parents in occupied Poland during the Second World War. A Jewish child trying to make sense of the dangers around him, he also meets a girl named Zelda.

About the author

Morris Gleitzman - BDeBooks
Morris Gleitzman

Once opens with a Jewish boy escaping an orphanage in occupied Poland in 1942, convinced his parents are still alive and that the soldiers are burning books rather than people. Gleitzman writes the Holocaust for children through Felix's misunderstandings, which is what makes it bearable and what makes it land.
