A obra apresenta a vivência de uma garota sobrevivente da Segunda Guerra Mundial com fatos presenciados por uma família alemã que vivia na Dinamarca e passa a lidar com a presença dos nazistas. Como base teórica desta análise, recorremos a autores como Seligmann Silva (2002) que aborda o testemunho, memória e o teor testemunhal, Vilela (2012) que analisa as articulações do testemunho como forma de significação e sentido, Salgueiro (2012) que analisa as vertentes e tipos de testemunho .Esta análise se beneficiará dos estudos de Don Latham (2002) com artigo intitulado Childhood under siege: Lois Lowry 's Number the stars and The Giver, o qual evidencia os diferentes tipos de infância de acordo com cada sociedade ou contexto histórico. A proposta deste trabalho é mostrar a importância do teor testemunhal como uma forma literária como resistência, além de analisar a presença da infância na obra de acordo com a perspectiva da autora.
