Was an alright book about history but I didn't really like it. It's about a girl and her family leaving on a ship to start a new life.

I loved this book. I had lots of details, and excitement, just my kind of book. If like books about WWII and bravery, this book is for you!

This is an amazing book for anybody!

This is an amazing book. The poetry format is very cool. I like the blend of detail about that time period and the suspense: will Ruthie, Wolfie, and the other passengers ever leave the cruise ship?

I didn't realise it was in verse. I wouldn't have picked it if I had known. Otherwise, OK. And this kind of verse is called free verse -- super hard to read, no metre, or rhyme. :(
