Rachel is eight years old when the Nazis invaded her native country, Holland. Since Rachel is Jewis,h she soon can do fewer and fewer things because of the restricitions placed upon the Jews by the Nazis. As the Nazi occupation worses she must find a way to survive.

Opinion: 

Hide and Seek is a misleading title for this Holocaust book since the consequences of being found are not part of any game children play. The author presented the horrors of Nazism against Jews prior to WW II and the tensions felt by those trying to escape the Nazis.  I appreciated the story and feel that it is a story everyone should read to remember what happened, so this atrocity will never happen again.
