From the Inside Flap:
In this captivating memoir, two young brothers use ingenuity, spirit, and teamwork to elude the Nazis. Readers will find themselves instinctively rooting for these children caught in the whirlwind of World War II. In a newly translated afterword, Joffo responds to questions he's been asked most frequently by students-about anti-semitism, courage, and forgiveness.
