4 comments about The Year My Whole Country Turned Jewish: A Time Travel Adventure in Medieval Khazaria With the Steppe Kids.
  1. For the age 12-16 reader, this is the best novel I've read on time-travel adventure in 9th-10th century Khazaria. The words and imagination from the point of view of a 15-year old girl is comparable in philosophy to the diaries of women and girls facing the destruction of their homeland and their need to find a new homeland. This is an excellent book by an author of 55 published books. I highly recommend all of Anne de Sola Hart's fine novels, particularly her series on the DNA Detectives and her romance/suspense novels listed here. This book is a winner, and from a young girl's point of view as a powerful heroine saving her people. Truly a Joan of Arc of the Volga/Caspian world of medieval time-travel. Wow! Highly recommended. I also highly recommend Anne Hart's novel, The Courage to be Jewish and the Wife of an Arab Sheik, and her novel, New Afghanistan TV Anchorwoman. Truly an international buffet!

  3. From Medieval Times to WWII and Beyond Enchanting Pontic Time Travel Adventures That Will Surely Outwit Harry Potter's Magic

    Should there be a class about history for 14-year old boys and 15-year old sisters, Marót, the 13-year-old boy in the latest adventure book, The Year My Whole Country Turned Jewish (now available through 1stBooks Library) would certainly outdo and outwit the legendary Harry Potter.

    Marót, the wonder boy and his sister Chichek have traveled as far away as Medieval times through World War II and back to the present religious conflicts in the Middle East. Author, Anne Hart painstakingly recreates these memorable historical events and offers loads of adventures, excitement and surprises in her most recent book, The Year My Whole Country Turned Jewish: A Time Travel Adventure in Medieval Khazaria with the Steppe Kids.

    It takes place between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea in medieval times when migrations were the day and the first crusade had only been in the planning stage. Hart is an award-winning novelist, textbook author, and playwright of a large musical and artistic family from the Greek Islands; she has written over 55 books and dozens of articles, plays and course books. In The Year My Whole Country Turned Jewish, she presents what seems to be an impossible task, bringing together century-old tales, multicultural stories and awe-inspiring historical accounts of Jewish origin.

    Hart's spectacular journey begins during the 9th and 10th century at the renowned Medieval Khazaria, the only Jewish state that exists outside Israel. Here, she blends actual accounts of the Jewish struggle against Russian pagan empire and the Vikings with a gripping family saga. The story is told from the perspective of an insightful young Marót who rescued his family from tyranny.

    Their journey from Khazaria overflows with memories of the Byzantine Empire and Constantinople which all played significant roles in the history of Judaism. Harts version of the book for young readers, The Day My Whole Country Turned Jewish also is published with illustrations, stories, and poems on the same theme.

    Also see Hart's multicultural female sleuth books, her Armenian detective character (female) Tweechig Haroutunian, her Eygptian/Greek Mizrahi character, in A Private Eye Called Mama Africa... She writes several novels a year as she has done since 1963. This is a spectacular book in the style of Harry Potter with a multicultural nuance. Great book for young teen readers. I also enjoyed Anne Hart's DNA Detectives Series, and her novel, The Courage to be Jewish and the Wife of an Arab Sheik as well as a version and poem of Marot's story in The Day My Whole Country Turned Jewish, which is a poem, a story, and illustrations from Marot's diary. The Year book focuses on Chichek's diary story of time travel. A wonderful read for young teens with the whole family.
