Mapping the bones / Jane Yolen.
1942 Poland. For twins Chaim and Gittel, life in the ghetto-- and then the concentration camp-- feels feel like a fairy tale with evil witches and dangerous ovens looming on the horizon. They find light through Chaim's poetry and the love they have for each other. As the brother and sister lose everything but each other, Chaim's words become a beacon of memory so that the children and grandchildren of survivors will never forget the atrocities that happened during the Holocaust.
