This is the story of a boy named Ben searching for his roots. It is the touching story of Ben's efforts to release himself from his feelings of inferiority as a Jew who has experienced only persecution, humiliation and being different from the "right people." Paul Aron, the author, was born in Hamburg in 1930. When he was five years old, he fled with his mother and stepfather from Germany to Denmark. During the persecution of the Jews in Denmark in 1943, he was among those few who were arrested by the Nazis when trying to flee to neutral Sweden, and he was deported to the KZ-Ghetto Theresienstadt, where he was confined for 18 months. Ben The Alien Bird is based on Paul Aron's own life - his Cain and Abel relationship with his friend Kristian and his confrontation with his mother.
