Compassionate.

Rose Blanche would be a good read for those who are interested in historical fiction, particularly stories of heroism during World War II. The most unique and distinctive feature of this book is the perspective of the protagonist, a young German girl who had the courage to defy societal norms and help imprisoned children. The story is both heartwarming and gut-wrenching, providing a thought-provoking commentary on the complexities of war and humanity. Readers may appreciate the delicate storytelling and the poignant themes of sacrifice, empathy, and perseverance.
