Book thief

January 1939. Germany. The country that lurked his breath. Death has never had so much work. And there will be even more. Mother is taking the nine -year -old Lisel Meminger and her younger brother to the adoptive parents near Munich, because their father is no longer - he was carried away by the breath of someone else"s and strange word "Communist", and in the eyes of his mother the girl sees the fear of the same fate. On the road, death visits the boy and first notices Lisel. So the girl is on Himmel Strasse-Heavenly Street. Whoever comes up with this name, he had a healthy sense of humor. It’s not that there was a existing underworld. No. But no paradise in any way. "Book thief" became a publishing sensation. Its circulation only in English exceeded 1.5 million copies
