Forgotten+Survivors

Forgotten Survivors of the Holocaust by Andre Stein

In this book it talks about ten different children who have lived through the Holocaust. They each have a different story, some are worst some are better. And we also find out what has happen to them later on in their life. We get to see through the eyes of a child how it was for them. Some of them have happy endings for example one of them have two parents more then before and some have lost one of them or both. Some of them have seen their parents die before their eyes and knew they couldn't do anything.

I would say that this book is for level 4 and up. People who want to study on how young children felt during the Holocaust and how they did to survive. The reason why I think that people under the age of sec 4 shouldn't read this is because sometimes there are things that could affect a younger person more than us who actually understand why this was happening.

The book represents the Holocaust in a youth perspective because the book tells you by the title that you will know about the children.But int he book we are not told much about the Holocaust. So if I didn't know about the Holocaust I would be a little lost. The text does represent the Holocaust appropriately because we get to know more about how the kids felt when they were going through the hard times of the holocaust.

What students would learn about the Holocaust from the book " Forgotten survivors of the Holocaust" is that you are told more how children felt in that time. Students would learn different perspectives of different places where people were being mistreated. They would also learn ways of how they would get away or what would happen to them if they were found.
