Editorial Reviews

"An important and accessible resource." School Library Journal, Starred

"Jewish children had to go into hiding from the Nazis during the Second World War. Greenfeld has spoken to survivors, and he weaves pieces of their painful narratives with a general account of what it was like to be a Jewish child at that time. Like Anne Frank, many were hidden by Righteous Gentiles, who often risked their own lives." Booklist, ALA, Starred Review —
