The Celluloid Doll

Helga Grundh fer bravely narrates the rarely-told story of what it was like for a young child growing up in Germany during World War II, separated from her parents, living in an unfurnished attic, walking miles barefoot to school in the snow, spending nights in a tunnel burrowed into a mountainside, scrounging edible plants in the fields and forests to eat with no other food on the table. A touching, emotional narrative."
