The book is a real story about a little girl who grew up with many experiences & miracles in her young life. The miracles did not stop as she grew...they brought her the incredible luck to be chosen as the first helper to the greatest hero of WWII, Raoul Wallenberg. This young neutral citizen, a Christian, came to Hungary from Sweden in July, 1944 & in 6 months, saved 100,000 human lives from the hands of the German & Hungarian Nazis. At the end of the war, the Soviets, rather than the Allied forces, liberated the Balkan States, including Hungary. In January, 1945, Wallenberg was arrested by the Soviets & has been a prisoner in the Gulag ever since. Wallenberg's dream was always of the young, who had some living to do. He wanted the "young around the world, regardless of color or religion to hold hands & make peace." This is the message of Agnes who does just that...finds young people who will perform miracles; who will help each other, care, share, & love. We are all here to find Wallenberg. The book also shows Agnes's life between 1945-1951 & after. The author has also written a "fantasy" about a small boy, called "wise Raoul" & illustrated by Dr. Masa Adachi, as well as a collection of short stories.
