Sonja Herbert grew up in a cramped caravan on the German carnival circuit in the years after World War II, the daughter of a Polish showman and a half-Jewish mother who survived the Third Reich by hiding in a circus. Poor, often lonely, and teased by siblings, Sonja discovers a personal, comforting faith in God. When two Mormon missionaries offer free English classes, everything changes—and she must choose between the carnival and her convictions, her family and her faith.
- A true conversion story unlike any other—a lonely carnival girl finds God between the shooting gallery and the merry-go-round
- Daughter of a half-Jewish mother who survived Hitler by hiding in a circus
- At fourteen, she had to choose between the carnival and her convictions, her family and her faith
- A vivid, heart-tugging glimpse into postwar Germany through a child's eyes
Perfect for an adult LDS reader who enjoys uplifting true conversion stories and WWII-era personal histories, especially women's memoirs of faith found in difficult circumstances.
