One of my favorite WW2 books is _Rose Blanche_. This, too, is a
"picture book," but the content (a little girl's reactions to her town's occupation by German soldiers) is more advanced than the usual picture book level. When I was working in an elementary school, I used this book very successfully with 4th through 6th graders. The series by Uchido(?) about a Japanese-American family in an internment camp also presents a moving, realistic picture of a young girl's reactions to WW2. Sorry my references are so vague, but I'm writing this at work, and my books are at home.
