1939 is a tough time for everyone in Germany. Ten-year old Liesel and her brother are on their way to be adopted into a foster home, but sadly, the brother dies en route. After his burial, Liesel steals her first book, The Grave Diggers Handbook. The remarkable thing is that Liesel cannot read.
,
Death spots Liesel in the graveyard and is fascinated by her. He watches throughout the war years as Liesel learns to read, makes friends, and even rescues and cares for a Jew. Death observes how the small rebellions carried out by Liesel and a handful of others offer an antidote to the tyranny of the day.

Zusak's remarkable book shows that it iis possible for a single individual to make a difference in the world.
