Description
In the shadow of Nazi-occupied Krakow, an eleven-year-old boy is torn from his life and forced into the brutal machinery of the Holocaust. Following his journey through a succession of concentration camps, this gripping narrative traces how survival is fought for day by day—through fear, loss, and the fragile hope that keeps him moving forward. Woven from the remembered realities of Jack Gruener’s life, the story illuminates themes of resilience, moral courage, and the enduring human need for dignity even in unimaginable conditions. Alan Gratz’s clear, emotionally direct storytelling brings historical events into sharp focus, making this a powerful account of endurance from occupation to liberation.
