The Little Liar - Thryft
The Little Liar - Thryft

Boy's innocence exploited in heart-wrenching wartime deceit.

"The Little Liar" could resonate with you if you have a penchant for historical fiction that delves into the complexities of moral choices under duress. Mitch Albom paints a poignant picture of a young boy caught in the gears of history, reminding us how innocence can be manipulated amidst chaos. It's a testament to the harrowing experiences of those who lived through the Holocaust, with an emotional depth that could both haunt and inspire you.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Eleven-year-old Nico Crispi never told a lie. When the Nazi's invade his
home in Salonika, Greece, the trustworthy boy is discovered by a German
officer, who offers him a chance to save his family. All Nico has to do is
convince his fellow Jewish residents to board trains heading towards "the
east" where they are promised jobs and safety. Unaware that this is all a
cruel ruse, the innocent boy goes to the station platform every day and
reassures the passengers that the journey is safe. But when the final train
is at the station, Nico sees his family being loaded into a large boxcar
crowded with other neighbors. Only after it is too late does Nico discover
that he helped send the people he loved--and all the others--to their doom
at Auschwitz. Nico never tells the truth again.
