### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ North to Freedom....30 years Later
*by  on 5 January 1999*

I must have been about 10 years old when I first read North to Freedom, and perhaps 12 years old the 20th time I read it. I am 41 now, and the  profound impression this book has left on me has caused me to seek it once  again, this time as a gift to my son. What is it about this book that has  gripped my imagination for 30 years? There were many facets of this book  which were intriguing to me. One of these was the ambiguity of who  "they", the bad guys, were. Chalk it up to my young age, but I at  times thought the book was an indictment of Nazi Germany, and later thought  perhaps it was about life behind the Iron Curtain. The ambiguity told the  lesson that evil was evil, regardless the political justification. The book  also was attractive as a great adventure. Most preadolescent boys, perhaps,  fantasize of having to make it on their own, facing enormous odds, relying  on cunning and stealth and courage to protect oneself from the evil  "grownups". There was also a romantic interlude in this book, and  the prepubescent boy who isn't at least thinking about girls is rare  indeed. The interlude climaxed in a brief kiss, which to preadolescent like  myself was, at that time, sheer exhiliration. While we boys could not, of  course, read a romance novel, an adventure novel such as this was quite  acceptable. Then, there was the intensely happy ending, most of which was  left to the reader's imagination because it was so abrupt. Young boys still  need a happy ending, and this one was spectacularly anticlimactic. I hope  my son shares the joy and ponders the triumph over evil so eloquently  presented in this book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Twenty year old memories and still this story is with me.
*by  on 12 May 1999*

My brothers and I came home from elementary school every day for lunch and mum would read to us. I think she must have read I Am David (former title  of this book) at least twice as it is still clear in my memory. I wasn't  just listening to the story, I was there with David as he travelled,  conquered fears, hid, and struggled his way to Denmark. My life consisted  of getting through my mornings in order to rush home and keep going with  the story. From my safe and warm home in Vancouver, BC, I learned a little  bit about compassion, bravery, and determination from this story.  Beautifully written. My sons are 9 and 6 and I think not yet ready for this  story, but I am ordering it anyway to reread it from an adult perspective.  Can't wait!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ North to Freedom is one of the best books I have ever read.
*by  on 11 July 1998*

I read this book for the first time when I was in my teens, in 1980, and have read it many times and loved it ever since.  I think this is a book everyone should read, adults and children alike.  It can teach you so much about life and about what is really important in that life.  David's experiences and struggles are so much more than most of us ever will have to deal with, but his mature, naive, yet extremely wise ways of dealing with things are lessons we could all do well to learn.  Read this book.  You won't be sorry.
