Diving into The Book Thief by Markus Zusak:
Standing by her brother’s grave Liesel Meminger found a book covered in snow, a gravedigger’s handbook.
Thus began her obsession with books, she was taught to read by her foster parents and from that day forward it was the only thing she could think about.
She started stealing any book she could get her hand on, from the ones burned by the Nazis to the ones in the mayor’s library.
But times are not always kind, especially when her family harbored a Jewish fugitive.
Forced to maturity at an early age by all of the destruction and ugliness around her, the young girl displayed courageous acts.
The Book Thief is one of the few books that can literally change your life and perspective forever.
