Surviving Hitler. A Boy in the Nazi Death Camps
Opis
This book follows a young man readers can relate to as he endures the
terror of being rounded up, of being ripped from his family and then
surviving in a death camp. You can smell it, you can understand his fear,
you can feel his bewildered relief at surviving. Much of what is depicted
is stark and painful, although it is written clearly and without
sensationalism (really, the events are so sensational, they don't need to
be amplified.) Even as an adult, I got a visceral, gut-wrenching feel for
this boy's experience. I recommend parents read this along with their child
and be prepared for important discussions. Lest I scare someone off, let me
clarify that it is not too harsh for a pre-teen or teen reader. It's just
bound to bring up strong feelings and discussion-inspiring questions.
