adventurous emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective fast-paced

4.0

Eddie Jaku touchingly recounts his tale of surviving the Holocaust. He manages to give a positive spin to the story through his focus on the help he received from others and the relationships that carried him through. Still, the story is filled with brutality and inhumane treatment. It’s a book we can all learn from.
