Product Description
Product Description
That's the good thing with stories. There's always a chance they can come true.
Felix is lucky. Unlike the other children in the orphanage, he's certain his parents will come back for him one day. And whatever the Nazis do and however many books they burn, Felix's imagination provides him and his companions with an endless supply of stories - stories that protect them when they're on the run, shield them from the violent madness all around, give them hope when all seems lost, and one day may even save Felix's life.
Once & Then is a spellbinding story of hope and imagination in the most terrible circumstances.
However my story turns out, I'll never forget how lucky I am.

Format:Paperback
This two books in one is great value for money - you need to have 'Now' with it as well as I recommend that you read them one after the other. The stories are amazing, written with simplicity but with depth at the same time - you won't want to put it down. Recommend for older teenagers through to the eldest of readers. 10/10 ***** Enjoy this fantastic author.

This book is a fantastic read for older children. I loved the fact that each chapter started with the title of the book. I laughed and I cried and I couldn't put it down til the end. The best thing was, that this book got my 12 year old son who was a reluctant reader hooked too!

Heart rending and hilarious
Read this rather than "The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas" for a child suitable (ages 10+) book about the holocaust which will also appeal to adults. Read more

Great read
Once and Then is a great read and with both books being put into one, it's hard to put down.

Made me cry!
A very emotional and touching look into the Holocaust, through the eyes of an innocent, naive child. Read more
