Surviving Hitler: A Boy in the Nazi Death Camps

Surviving Hitler: A Boy in the Nazi Death Camps is the powerful story of Jack Mandelbaum, who as a teenager was torn from a life of warmth and family love, to spend three horrific years in a concentration camp. Vintage photographs, effective design and engrossing narrative introduce the reader to a man who still refuses to be consumed by hate, choosing instead to live a life of tolerance and forgiveness. Warren creates a testimony of determination and courage using information gained from her interviews with Mr. Mandelbaum. She supports her historical portrait with a variety of sources connecting readers to this period. A 2002 Robert F. Sibert Honor Book.
