    • During World War II, millions of young Jewish individuals faced the horrors of the Nazis' Final Solution. While many are familiar with Hitler and the genocidal campaign against European Jews, the personal stories of those who endured the Holocaust often remain untold. Some were captured and sent to concentration camps, others hid from the Nazis, and some were separated from their families or chose to resist. Against tremendous odds, many survived, and their stories must be preserved in our collective memory. This narrative nonfiction, aimed at upper middle-grade readers, is crafted by acclaimed author Deborah Hopkinson, who brings the voices of Holocaust survivors to life, detailing their experiences of persecution, survival, and resistance. Through testimonies from Germany, the Netherlands, France, and Poland, Hopkinson creates a poignant and varied portrayal of Jewish youth during the Third Reich. Enhanced by archival images and numerous interviews, this compelling work not only honors the bravery of the victims but also inspires young readers to take action, reminding them that heroism often begins with the simple act of showing compassion to others.
