Helga's Story: A Child of NAZI Germany: Historical Fiction Novel Kindle Edition
Like many little girls, Helga Reiter dreams of horses. More than anything, the six-year-old wants to learn to ride and become a great equestrian. But, in 1941, the world is at war...
Having overrun much Europe and North Africa, Germany's glorious military has no spare horses for frivolous childhood dreams. Stubborn as any good German soldier, Helga, contrives several ill-fated attempts to ride. By late 1944, Helga has no choice but to forgo her dream and face a terrible reality. Her country is losing the war. As Germany is crushed between the Soviet and Allied advance, the Reiter family struggles to survive one day at a time.

- Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2012Helga's story is charming and gives you an inside look at what this little girls family endured during the war. It's the first time for me read something from the other side of the war. Even though the book is fiction, it is based on a real persons memories and brings history to life.
Peter writes riveting tale of a young girl's life in Germany, who loves horses and all she wants to do is have the opportunity to ride.
It's wonderful story that is easy to ready and holds your interest all the way through.
I recommend this book to anyone who wants a fascinating read.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2012This books is not something that I usually would read but Peter did such a great job at writing,that I could not put the book down. Can't wait to see what Peter has up his sleeve next.
