Margrit's World War Ii In 1943, five-year-old Margrit was sent to a farm in Bavaria to escape the bombing in the big city of Hamburg. Separated from her mother, father, and siblings, she had to face many new experiences--life in the country, school, the death of a friend--without their support. Unaffected and direct, "Margrit's World War II" is a poignant look at war through the eyes of a child.
