'Haunting... dangerous and desperate, but also full of courage and hope.' The Guardian


I had a plan for me and Zelda

Pretend to be someone else

Find new parents

Be safe forever


Then the Nazis came


Felix and Zelda are determined to survive and find a way to freedom, while also trying to keep their humanity and hope alive.


Told with heart and humour, Then offers a unique perspective on one of the darkest chapters in history and serves as a reminder of the resilience and hope that can be found even in the most dire of circumstances.


'Sequel to the searing Once . . ., this tale of young people trying to survive in Poland during World War II is equally powerful.'

Kirkus Reviews, starred review


'The innocence and maturity of Felix's narrative voice conveys human resilience when faced with the impossible.'

Publishers Weekly, starred review


'Funny and shocking at the same time.'

Jewish Chronicle

Morris Gleitzman

Morris Gleitzman grew up in England and came to Australia when he was sixteen.

After university he worked for ten years as a screenwriter. Then he had a wonderful experience.

He wrote a novel for young people. Now, after 36 books, he's one of Australia's most popular children's authors.

In February 2018 Morris was chosen as the Australian Children’s Laureate for 2018-19.

I want to be an ambassador for the fears and hopes and dreams and dreads that young people have as they contemplate and navigate today’s world, and also as they think about the possibilities of their future adult worlds,’ Gleitzman said.

‘Much of my time will be spent championing stories as a medium for young people to engage creatively with those possibilities. Stories reveal themselves in our imaginations, our intellects and our emotions—all places where we work on our own destinies.’
