An exceedingly important book that portrays the stories of six Holocaust survivors in the comic format. In order to keep the memory of the Holocaust alive, we must tell their stories. Grateful to see this as a graphic novel so more children will read and learn about the Holocaust.

This graphic novel about the Holocaust is superb. This would be a great introduction to children just learning about the Holocaust. The book follows the heart-breaking and inspirational journey of six children. The pictures and text are sure to appeal to the readers. The bonus material at the end of the book is worth reading as well. Very well-written and highly recommended.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for providing a copy to read and review.

This nonfiction graphic novel is best suited for older children of middle school age. The illustrations provide the backdrop to the emotional stories shared by WWII survivors. The stories are told without graphic detail but enough information to piece together the experience of the survivor. Resources include a glossary, timeline, websites for further research, and information on what happened to the survivors after WWII ended.

This amazing book takes complex stories of children surviving the holocaust, and tells them in simple, easy to read and understand form. Even if you didn't know what happened with the nazis and the jews, this book would explain enough about it that you could understand.

These children all survived, of course, to tell their stories, but each one survived in a different way. One child, who hid in the countryside of France didn't even know the war was over for two years, as she basically lived as a indentured servant.

The pictures are stunning, and simple at the same time.

Highly recommend this to libraries and schools. It is a good starting point to learn about what happened in World War II.

Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.

This graphic novel would be an amazing introduction to the Jewish experience for older elementary or middle school aged children. I think this would work well in a classroom, and could be used to spark interest and lead to research projects using the wonderful resources listed in the back of the book. This presentation of 6 young people effected by the holocaust does not get visually graphic, but still tells the atrocities in a way that shows how horrific the holocaust was. The fact that the stories are all true and told by the survivors who lived them can not be overlooked for the impact of a first person account. This would be a good addition to a classroom or school library, a homeschool history or literature curriculum, or a home library!

This is one of the most important books I’ve ever read and I’m so grateful to the author and contributors for taking the time to produce such an insightful, enlightening collection of a accounts.
The comic formate is a really excellent approach and there’s a glossary and timeline for young ones who struggle.
