In this powerful novel, a young boy's actions become crucial in the fate of Jewish children being smuggled away from the Nazis. As German soldiers patrol the mountains near his village, Jo must navigate the risks and consequences of helping those in need. With the slightest mistake potentially having devastating repercussions, Jo's determination is put to the test. This heart-pounding story provides a wider context for children who have studied the Holocaust and The Diary of Anne Frank. Shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal and Guardian Fiction award, Waiting for Anya is a gripping and thought-provoking novel that explores the complexities of war and its impact on individuals and communities.
