![]() ![]() To let me know that after three long years and eight long months things are finally improving for Jewish booksellers. They’ve sent my favourite vegetable to let me know their problems are finally over. Thank you God, Jesus, Mary, the Pope and Adolf Hitler, I’ve waited so long for this. Then I realise what the carrot means and I have to sit down quick before my legs give way.Īt last. Except it can’t be because miracles only happened in ancient times and this is 1942. ![]() For a few seconds I think it’s a miracle. So if a whole carrot turns up in this place, first it gets admired, then it gets chopped into enough pieces so that sixty-two kids, eleven nuns and one priest can all have a bit.Īt this moment I’m probably the only kid in Poland with a whole carrot in his dinner bowl. We can’t grow vegetables up here in the mountains. Even the nuns don’t get whole carrots, and they get bigger servings than us kids because they need the extra energy for being holy. Three years and eight months I’ve been in this orphanage and I haven’t had a whole carrot in my dinner bowl once. It’s floating in my soup, huge among the flecks of cabbage and the tiny blobs of pork fat and the few lonely lentils and the bits of grey plaster from the kitchen ceiling. I feel for the edge of the table and put my bowl down and wipe my glasses. I hold my bowl above my head so other kids can’t pinch my soup while I’m fogged up and I use Dodie’s slurping noises to guide me in. I use my ears for navigation.ĭodie who always sits next to me is a loud slurper because of his crooked teeth. You know how when a nun serves you very hot soup from a big metal pot and she makes you lean in close so she doesn’t drip and the steam from the pot makes your glasses go all misty and you can’t wipe them because you’re holding your dinner bowl and the fog doesn’t clear even when you pray to God, Jesus, the Virgin Mary, the Pope and Adolf Hitler?
