The Devil's Arithmetic

Hannah Stern, an American-born Jewish adolescent, is uninterested in the culture, faith, and customs of her relatives. But she begins to reevaluate her heritage during a supernatural experience of being transported back to a Nazi death camp in 1941 and meeting a young girl named Rivkah who is a fellow captive in the camp. As Hannah and Rivkah struggle to survive in the face of daily atrocities, they form an unbreakable bond.
