The
Book Thief is a moving, compelling story set in Germany during World War II. It
tells the story of Liesel Memeinger, a young girl sent to live with a foster
family in Munich. During her time there, she learns to read and in doing so,
her passion for books and literature grows. Word's become Liesel's escape and
soon her downfall as she begins to read whatever she can get her hands on;
illegal or not. Recounted and narrated by Death himself, The Book Thief teaches
us to pursue what we love, as it will help us during dark times.
Due to the
popularity and wide-spread love this novel received, it was turned into a movie
starring Geoffry Rush, Emily Watson and Sophie Nélisse and released in 2013.
