About this listen
As she yearned to be reunited with her family while she lived in a home for refugee children on Willesden Lane, Lisa's music became a beacon of hope. A memoir of courage, survival, and the power of music to uplift the human spirit, this compelling tribute to one special young woman and the lives she touched will educate and inspire.
Based on a true story of a 14 year old girl Lisa Jura, who had to flee her home in Vienna and rebuild her life in London, the story brings home the reality of the Holocaust.

Critic Reviews
The book focuses on themes of courage, survival and the power of music and will both educate and inspire young readers.
This is a true story, sympathetically told, which should inspire young people to face the challenges of life in a positive way. It is a book worthy of any library.
