Goodreads summary: Stolen from her family by the Nazis, Nadia is a young girl who tries to make sense of her confusing memories and haunting dreams. Bit by bit she starts to uncover the truth — that the German family she grew up with, the woman who calls herself Nadia's mother, are not who they say they are. Beyond her privileged German childhood, Nadia unearths memories of a woman singing her a lullaby, while the taste of gingersnap cookies brings her back to a strangely familiar, yet unknown, past. Piece by piece, Nadia comes to realize who her real family was. But where are they now? What became of them? And what is her real name?
This story of a Lebensborn girl--a child kidnapped for her "Aryan looks" by the Nazis in their frenzy to build a master race--reveals one child's fierce determination to uncover her past against incredible odds.

Well-written book which looks at the AFTERMATH of War; the damage is done, the memories suppressed, the guilt at surviving arises. First of two companion novels, Making Bombs for Hitler is the other book. ( )

Imagine coming to a new country with someone who tells you to claim she is your mother. After all she did save your life. Imagine you don't really know who you are. Nadia is in Canada with Marusia and Ivan pretending to be their daughter. Her nightmares lead her to believe she is a Nazi. How does she find out the truth? This was a wonderful book. I'd not heard of the Lebensborn children so now I can look for more information on this subject. This is a book I will definitely recommend to my students. I think it should be on our 8th grade reading list. ( )
