Description
A remarkable true story of survival and hope in the darkest depths of war. Eight-year-old Lise's happy childhood on the Indonesian island of Java was shattered when her friends and neighbours began to disappear. For two years, she and her family were imprisoned in POW camps, facing starvation, illness, and brutal treatment at the hands of their Japanese captors. Despite the unimaginable hardships, Lise never lost hope. She found ways to survive and even looked beyond the barbed wire to a time when she would be free again. This is a powerful and moving account of one little girl's incredible journey. First published in hardback as The Blue Door, this book tells the remarkable true story of a young girl who refused to give up in the face of overwhelming adversity.
