We recommend reading Morris Gleitzman’s Once series in order, or at least starting with Felix’s story in book one. In the last two books - Now and Always- we meet Felix’s grandson as the elderly man faces up to his past. In the following books in the series, we journey with Felix throughout the war and in the aftermath, as he experiences huge losses and hopes for happiness. Once by Morris Gleitzman is a powerful series of novels about Felix - a Jewish orphan caught in the middle of the Holocaust. He soon learns that Poland in 1942 is not a safe place for Jewish boys, but can his gift for storytelling keep him one step ahead of the Nazis and help him find his parents? After all, everybody deserves to have something good in their life at least once. The series starts with Once - the story of ten-year-old Felix, on the run from his orphanage to search for his parents. Suitable for readers 10+, these poignant stories handle the atrocities of the Holocaust sensitively and with grace.
