<h3>'Haunting... dangerous and desperate, but also full of courage and hope.' The Guardian</h3>
I had a plan for me and Zelda
Pretend to be someone else
Find new parents
Be safe forever

Then the Nazis came
Felix and Zelda are determined to survive and find a way to freedom, while also trying to keep their humanity and hope alive.

Told with heart and humour, Then offers a unique perspective on one of the darkest chapters in history and serves as a reminder of the resilience and hope that can be found even in the most dire of circumstances.

'Sequel to the searing Once . . ., this tale of young people trying to survive in Poland during World War II is equally powerful.'
Kirkus Reviews, starred review

'The innocence and maturity of Felix's narrative voice conveys human resilience when faced with the impossible.'
Publishers Weekly, starred review

'Funny and shocking at the same time.'
Jewish Chronicle
