NOTES
During World War II, a girl makes an unbreakable connection with a boy sheltering in her family's Tuscan villa, where the treasures of the Uffizi Galleries are hidden. A moving coming-of-age story about the power of art in wartime, based on true events. As Allied bombs rain down on Torino in the autum of 1942, Stella Costa's mother sends her to safety with distant relatives in a Tuscan villa. There, Stella finds her family tasked with a great responsibility: hiding nearly three hundred priceless masterpieces from Florence, including Botticelli's famous Primavera.-- Provided by publisher
