    I am David
  

*by Z***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 May 2015*

David was 12yrs old and lay still in the darkness, tonight he must escape, he hated this man yet he was helping him, the electric fence was to be turned off for thirty seconds, outside were the supplies he would need, he was to head for Italy and then to Denmark, so began what was left of David's lifeHe managed to hide away on a ship bound for Italy, a sailor felt sorry for him and although David could not swim he lowered him over the side  in a lifebelt where he could step ashore in Salerno, the first thing he did was to find water where he could wash himself and his clothes to get the smell of the camp from him, to help him he had learnt many languages in the camp, he could speak French, German, Italian, English, Spanish and a little Hebrew, but for himself David had no idea who he was or where he had come fromDuring his long journey he meets many people who turn out to be friends but he meets enemies as well, he meets other children but is afraid of them, he had never learnt how to play, he recues a young girl from a fire and spends some time with her family but he feels he must travel on, he enters a church and a priest shows him the way to SwitzerlandThe Swiss frontier was close, whilst staying with a woman for a few days he sees a picture in an album and just knows it is his mother and she is in Denmark, his struggles continue, he is captured by a farmer who is very cruel to him, he befriends a dog, escapes along with the dog, meets some soldiers, he knows he will be shot they will be just like the guards at the campYou must read the book to find the conclusion to this story, does he escape the soldiers, does he ever get to Denmark, does he ever find is mother or is he destined to be alone foreverA nice well written story and well worth a read

    Powerful and Inspiring.
  

*by P***A on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 January 2022*

I went back to my childhood with this book.  It was probably one of the first books we read as a class in junior school when I would have been about 8 years old.  It stuck with me long enough for me to want to find a copy and read it as an adult, and I wasn't disappointed.  David is a wonderful character.  He escapes from the concentration camp as a 12 year old, and embarks on a journey on foot to Denmark, travelling through Greece, Italy, Switzerland and Germany on his way.  A beautiful and powerful read.
