Send for Me by Lauren Fox

Annelise lives with her parents--Klara and Julius--who own a bakery in Feldenheim, Germany. Slowly, they see their world getting smaller and more dangerous as their freedoms and rights are taken away from them because they are Jewish. As Annelise marries and has a daughter, Ruth, they all look for a way to leave Germany. Send for Me recounts, partly through letters, the family's life during the war, and after in the United States. The book also tells the story of Ruth's daughter, Clare, in Milwaukee.
