Through the riveting, and historically accurate tales of these nine children, the reader learns precisely what occurred during the Holocaust. The book’s protagonists represent every stripe of victim, stemming from every corner of Europe and from every type of background: economically, socially and religiously. What they all shared in common was an iron-like will to live - but not at all costs. Their ability to hold on to dignity, principles and universal values makes for riveting accounts of the zenith of human achievement.
