The child of Auschwitz / by Graham, Lily,author.;

It is 1942 and Eva has boarded a train to Auschwitz. Exhausted from standing up for days, she can think only of her longed-for reunion with her husband Michal, who was sent there months earlier. But when Eva arrives at Auschwitz, there is no sign of Michal and the reality of the camp comes crashing down upon her. As she lies shivering on a thin mattress, her head shaved by rough hands, she hears a whisper. Her bunkmate, Sofie, is reaching out her hand... As the days pass, they learn each other's dreams - Eva's is that she will find Michal alive, and Sofie's is that she will be reunited with her son Tomas, who has been sent to an orphanage. Sofie sees the chance to engineer one last meeting between Eva and Michal and knows she must take it even if means befriending the enemy... When Eva realises she is pregnant she fears she has endangered both their lives. But the women are determined to hold on to the last flower of hope in the shadows: their precious children, who they pray will live to tell their story when they no longer can.

We'll soon be home again / by Bab Bonde, Jessica,author,translator.(CARDINAL)831740; Bergting, Peter,artist.(CARDINAL)814917; Barbito, Sunshine,translator.; Renta, Kathryn S.,letterer.;

"The testimonies of six survivors of the Holocaust are presented in comics form, aimed at teenage readers. Some of them were children then, and are still alive to tell what happened to them and their families. How they survived. What they lost--and how you keep on living, despite it all. Jessica Bab Bonde has, based on survivor's stories, written an important book. Peter Bergting's art makes the book accessible, despite its difficult subject. Using first-person point of view allows the stories to get under your skin as survivors describe their persecutions in the Ghetto, the de-humanization and the starvation in the concentration camps, and the industrial-scale mass murder taking place in the extermination camps. When right-wing extremism and antisemitism are being evoked once again, it's the alarm-bell needed to remind us never to forget the horrors of the Holocaust."--Provided by publisher.Grades 7-9Ages 12+

The prisoners of Breendonk : personal histories from a World War II concentration camp / by Deem, James M.,author.(CARDINAL)767104;

Includes bibliographical references (pages 327-331) and index.Fort Breendonk was built in the early 1900s to protect Antwerp, Belgium, from possible German invasion. Damaged at the start of World War I, it fell into disrepair until the Nazis took it over after their invasion of Belgium in 1940. Never designated an official concentration camp by the SS and instead labeled a "reception" camp where prisoners were held until they were either released or transported, Breendonk was no less brutal. About 3,600 prisoners were held there. Just over half of them survived. As one prisoner put it, "I would prefer to spend nineteen months at Buchenwald than nineteen days at Breendonk." With access to the camp and its archives and with rare photos and artwork, James M. Deem pieces together the story of the camp by telling the stories of its victims -- Jews, communists, resistance fighters, and common criminals -- for the first time in an English-language publication. Leon Nolis's haunting photography of the camp today accompanies the wide range of archival images.Ages 14-17.1100LAccelerated Reader AR
