Overview

DON'T MISS BRIDGE OF CLAY, MARKUS ZUSAK'S FIRST NOVEL SINCE THE BOOK THIEF.

The extraordinary #1 New York Times bestseller that is now a major motion picture, Markus Zusak's unforgettable story is about the ability of books to feed the soul.

Nominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read.

When Death has a story to tell, you listen.

It is 1939. Nazi Germany. The country is holding its breath. Death has never been busier, and will become busier still.

Liesel Meminger is a foster girl living outside of Munich, who scratches out a meager existence for herself by stealing when she encounters something she can't resist-books. With the help of her accordion-playing foster father, she learns to read and shares her stolen books with her neighbors during bombing raids as well as with the Jewish man hidden in her basement.

In superbly crafted writing that burns with intensity, award-winning author Markus Zusak, author of I Am the Messenger, has given us one of the most enduring stories of our time.

"The kind of book that can be life-changing." --The New York Times

"Deserves a place on the same shelf with The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank." --USA Today

    Wish I could reread this again for the first time; amazing book and it is fast paced and the chapters are pretty short so you can finish it in a day if you pleased ! #springpicks

  • A MUST read for anyone who loves great characters

    HPB S. - 5 years 1 month ago

    One of the most moving and heart-wrenching stories I have ever read. This book was one that I read from cover to cover in a very short time. Recommended for anyone interested in a story truly about the characters living the tale. #SpringPicks

  • New Favorite!

    Tabitha M. - 5 years 1 month ago

    I read this book just this week for a spring break extra credit assignment, and it was the most enjoyable assignment i have ever had! I read it in parts of two days, i could not put it down! Intriguing from the first page, The Book Thief hooked me immediately and never let me go with it's heartwarming, tear-jerking, 584 pages of greatness. Have already told a couple of friends that it's a must-read, i now i'm telling you! It is without a doubt my new favorite book! #SpringPicks
