This first-hand account covers his life from age 4 to 14, as the family travels through Poland to a work camp in the Soviet Union, then finally, at the war’s end, to Paris. This story of survival against all odds is illustrated by the author and is as brutal as it is inspiring.  (Vermont Golden Dome Book Award, 2022)
