A parent would reach for this book when their child begins asking difficult questions about history, human cruelty, or the Holocaust, and they need a resource that is honest without being gratuitously graphic. This memoir in verse follows the author's father, Moché, through the harrowing experience of Nazi labor camps, yet it maintains a profound focus on the 'small miracles' that sustained him. The free-verse format provides a gentle, lyrical entry point for middle-grade readers, allowing them to process the weight of the themes: resilience, family bonds, and the persistence of hope. It is an ideal choice for families looking to introduce historical trauma through a lens of human dignity and the power of small acts of kindness.
