World War II has been over for many years. But no one has forgotten Lilith’s Abode, where the fires raged and the chimneys touched the sky.
Eleven-year-old Ada encounters some of the survivors when she visits her grandfather for the summer. These “lost souls” live in a manoir under the watchful eye of the Keeper of Spinka, who is a friend of her grandfather’s.
The keeper is an old man now, but Ada can still see the numbers that were branded on his arm during the war. She can also see his magical gifts.
As the keeper gets to know Ada, he reveals the source of his magic and the prophecy that will utterly transform Ada’s life. She is burdened and uncertain whether she can shoulder the enormous responsibility with which she is entrusted. And then she’s called upon to embark on an important and dangerous mission—to travel back in time to try to right a wrong. But the journey is perilous. Does Ada have the courage to accept her destiny?

Author Daniel Kunin writes a young adult Holocaust story, that takes place post WW2. Supernatural in style, it contains Biblical symbolism as well as elements of fantasy, allegory and fable, typical of the Jewish Literary tradition. The author has taken a very painful theme "The Holocaust" (ie Churban), and has fashioned a story with a unique twist, forcing the reader to philosophize, to question and ultimately to use a good dictionary! This book is an interesting read for upper elementary and high school Holocaust studies programs.Product details

The Keeper of the Scroll edition by Daniel Kunin Children eBooks Reviews
This is one of those books that though it is written for young adults, it has many layers of depth that can be enjoyed by all adults. Because it has many layers, you want to read it more than once. The style reminds me of Lewis Carroll, the story hearkens to the Alchemist. We follow the main character Ada's discovery of her destiny and enjoy her encounters with characters who help her along the way. Even though the setting is the Holocaust, death camps, you get the sense that Ada is learning about life. This dichotomy is exciting. I can't wait for the next book to come out.,
