Description
Seven-year-old Paul's world is shattered when the Germans bombed his Polish town at the outset of WWII. He braced for what was ahead: *2 years under Russian occupation *Being forced into a Jewish ghetto for over a year *Escaping through the barbed wire hours before the ghetto was liquidated and watching as 13,000 inmates were sent to Auschwitz *Months hiding in a potato shed in a field during winter *2 years alone, wandering in German-occupied Poland, working on farms while hiding from the Nazis. Only thirteen when the war was over, it took Paul a lifetime to piece together the story of his family's suffering during those six brutal years, the Holocaust. This tale of a Jewish child's brave struggle with war and racism is one of horror and of hope.
