Summary
Trapped in Hitler's Hell is the true story of Anita Dittman's experience as a young half¬Jew girl in Germany during WW2. It is important to me to read these kind of books to be reminded of the horrors of the Holocaust which many today try to deny even happened. Early on as Hitler came to power, Anita and her mother had become believers in Jesus as their Messiah through a Lutheran pastor who shared the gospel message and lived it out in front of them. Anita attributes her belief in Christ as the source of her strength, peace and protection during a time of horrific atrocities against Jews. While a skeptic may not see God's Hand upon them, and an atheist may scoff at the idea, Anita and her mother held fast to their faith in Jesus throughout their ordeal. Anita cites numerous examples of how she and her mother's lives were preserved. Presumably some will read this book and shake their head at her statements; others will read this book and be encouraged in their faith and gather strength for their own lives through Anita's experience. I encourage you to read the book. It is wellwritten and easy to read. And it is not overly graphic such that one cannot stomach reading it. Anita's primary focus is to share experience after experience during her time living through Hitler's hell of how God Almighty intervened to preserve her and her mother's lives. This book will be a great encouragement to those who have placed their faith and trust in Jesus Christ.
Violence: I debated what rating to give this book. It is about the Holocaust and war, which is violent. However, Anita's writing does not dwell in it in such a way that it is graphic or persistent in nature
Language: I'm sure that Anita heard plenty of awful language throughout her experience, but she did not use it in her book.
Sexual: I really don't remember her talking about either at all. If there was any mention, it would have not been significant to her story very small part¬¬a bit character drinks beer and offers the main character one.
