Anytime I read a book that is based during war I think of my Mom or her relatives. My Mom was born in England. She was there during World War I. She has told me her experiences as a young child during that time. This book - A Picture of Hope- brings us to a terrible time in our history. The unimaginable happened.
Nellie was a photographer and felt that she was being left out of the important news stories. She was determined to change that. In doing so, she landed up in Nazi-controlled France. In France, she met Jean-Paul, part of the French Underground.
Nellie and Jean-Paul's journey was dangerous but absolutely necessary. They risked all to help others. I quickly turned the pages as I was so engrossed in their story. Would they survive?
It was upsetting to read the atrocities that occurred in that time. But it is so important to not forget.
I received this book from Barbour Books to review.
Proverbs 3:5-6 ESV / Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths
