4.9/5 (18050 ratings)

Description:—The Young Adult Adaptation of the True Story of the Rescue of a Holocaust Death Train in World War II— WHAT YOU DO MATTERS AS A YOUNG TEEN living a comfortable life with family, what do you do when the Germans march into your town to persecute you, and your neighbors and your friends turn their backs? As life turns upside-down and you are now a young prisoner—fighting for survival in a concentration camp and FORCED TO BOARD A DEATH TRAIN to nowhere—how do you go on as people are dying all around you? AS A YOUNG AMERICAN SOLDIER in World War II, fighting brutal battles across Europe—having been shot at and shelled, having seen your friends killed, and no longer even able to remember what your own mother looks like—what is the plan when you STUMBLE ACROSS A HOLOCAUST TRAIN full of suffering families that shocks you to your core, even after you think you have seen it all? Jewish children on a death train. Nazi murderers. American soldiers. A teacher turned detective, solving a historical mystery, two generations later. It's not a novel. It's not 'based on a true story.' It really happened, and teenagers were there to tell about surviving the horrors of the Holocaust—and living to thank their liberators, just a few years older than themselves... in their own words. And what happens when the SOLDIERS AND SURVIVORS again MEET FACE TO FACE, seven decades later? ~ “I survived because of many miracles. but for me to actually meet and cry together with my liberators—the ‘angels of life’ who literally gave me back my life—was just beyond imagination!” –Leslie Meisels, Teenage Holocaust survivor, 65 years after being freed by American soldiers in World War II ~From the author of 'The Things Our Fathers Saw' World War II eyewitness history series~ A recent study found that two-thirds of American millennials do not know what Auschwitz is. Twenty-two percent of you said you are not sure you have heard of the Holocaust at all. Well, most adults my age don’t know much about it, either. The ‘good news’ is that 93% of the surveyed group feels a need to learn about it, because most agreed that ‘something like it’ could happen again. And I adapted this book for you with the hope that by the time you finish it, you will know more about the Holocaust than most of the adults in your life—and maybe you’ll be motivated to do something about that, and think more about the world we inherited from these survivors, their liberators, and the perpetrators and the bystanders. While it is true that some risked all to help their neighbors, when confronted with a moral choice, most people did nothing. I’ll take you into the world of the Holocaust through the eyes of the teens who lived it, children and young adult survivors from all over Europe who had two things in common—they shared the exact same American soldier-liberators, and now, as grandparents themselves, they had the opportunity to meet those same American gentlemen who were in the sunsets of their lives, some quietly wondering if it was all worthwhile. And as I lead you out of the darkness, we will ask questions and seek the answers about what it all means for our world today. We will keep the flame of remembrance alive, and you will become the new witnesses, the new light.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
