By A Customer
This review is from: Hesse Karen : Letters from Rifka (Paperback)
I think The book "Letters From Rifka" is an excellent book and it has really captured the real mind and thoughts of a child going through such a very hard time in their life. It is beautifully written and the type of style Karen Hesse is writing in is extraordinary. Personally I would give it 5 stars, two thumbs up, etc.
