It started in the autumn of 1941 when Masha was seven years old. It was the time of the Second World War and the Jewish people were being arrested and taken away by the Nazis.
One day Masha's parents were taken away. She wanted to find them. Masha started her trip to Germany from Belgium. Afraid of being caught she followed lonely forest paths instead of busy roads. At night she slept in deserted buildings or in the woods.
She begged or stole food to survive. If Masha was passing through a village, she waited for church bells to ring, people left their houses she went inside to take some food. When she couldn't beg or steal she ate berries, seeds and insects.
Once a farmer hit her with a stone when she was running away with some stolen food. Masha escaped to a forest. She was crying with pain when a big grey wolf approached. The wolf sniffed her and went away, but it came back. A few nights later the she-wolf came up to the girl and slept next to her... The two shared food and walked in the forest together. Then, a hunter killed the wolf. Masha was very sad and alone again.
Soon she had another meeting with wolves. Some wolf-cubs were playing on a rock and Masha came near, delighted. She stayed with them sharing food and shelter. After a while she moved on... Sadly, she never found her parents.
