  In this award-winning memoir translated from Italian to English, a Jewish girl grows up during a difficult time of racial discrimination and war, and discovers light in unexpected places. This classic, powerful story from Lia Levi is adapted for young readers, with a powerful author’s note to readers.  
  1938, Italy. Six-year-old Lia loves to build sandcastles at the beach and her biggest problem is her shyness and quiet, birdlike voice—until prime minister Mussolini joins forces with Hitler in World War II, and everything changes. 
  Now there are laws saying Jewish children can’t go to school, Jews can’t work, or go on vacation. It’s difficult for Lia to understand why this is happening to her family. When her father loses his job, they must give up their home and move from city to city. 
  As war comes closer, it becomes too dangerous to stay together, and Lia and her sisters are sent to hide at a convent. Will she ever be “just a girl” again? 
  The memoir is full of poignant moments of friendship and loss, dreaded tests at school, told in Lia's captivating voice, as she grows into a young teen. Just a Girl is an important addition to the WWII Jewish canon. 
  Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

  Mei and Yun Wu have always been different from the other kids in the village. 
   
  They’ve learned not to talk about why. 
   
  But now, as this year’s Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, the twelve-year-olds find that they are exactly like everyone else: bursting with excitement. 
   
  That’s because word of their grandfather’s incredible mooncakes has reached the Emperor of China himself. And on festival night, the emperor’s son will arrive to sample Grandpa’s mooncakes and report back to His Majesty. 
   
  The twins can hardly dare to dream what might come of the prince’s praise.  
   
  Unfortunately, when disaster strikes on the big night, what happens in the aftermath is the stuff of nightmares. 
   
  Mei and Yun are suddenly left to rescue both their grandfather and their village from a terrible fate. And while the twins have always been able to count on each other, this situation, steeped in ancient magic and tales of curses and revenge, is exactly the sort that’s powerful enough to snap the ties that bind.
