About This Book
Reach for this book when your child begins asking serious questions about human rights, history, or the meaning of courage in the face of injustice. This collection features fourteen first-person accounts from Holocaust survivors who were hidden as children by brave non-Jewish protectors. It explores heavy themes of fear and grief alongside profound resilience and the kindness of strangers. While the subject matter is intense, these true stories focus on the triumph of the human spirit and the importance of empathy.
