Hardback. Condition: Good. "A not-to-be-missed, inspirational book about courage, heart, and the necessity of caring for others."--Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Stars of the Night recounts the powerful true story of the 669 children who traveled as part of the Czech Kindertransport from Prague to Britain on the eve of World War II, as Hitler's campaign of hatred toward Jews and political dissidents took hold. Told from the collective perspective of the children, the narrative follows their journey as they leave everything they've ever known in hopes of staying safe. After the war ends, they return to Prague only to find that nearly all of their parents have been killed by the Nazis. And more than fifty years pass before they learn the identity of the British man who was instrumental in saving their lives--Nicholas Winton. Award-winning author Caren Stelson teams up with acclaimed illustrator Selina Alko to sensitively tell this tale of survival and defiance in the face of tyranny. Alko, Selina (illustrator).…

Hardback. Condition: Good. A heartbreaking but essential perspective on war and survival.--starred, Kirkus Reviews In this deeply moving nonfiction picture book, award-winning author Caren Stelson brings Sachiko Yasui's story of surviving the atomic bombing of Nagasaki and her message of peace to a young audience. As World War II rages, the sounds of battle grow ever closer to Nagasaki, Japan, where Sachiko and her family live. Sachiko's parents do all they can to keep the family safe, but they are not prepared for what is to come. On August 9, 1945, an atomic bomb explodes over Nagasaki. Sachiko's family suffers devastating losses. But in the rubble of their home, they find a leaf-shaped bowl that has miraculously survived without a chip or crack. This bowl--which was passed down through the generations and once held their daily meals--now holds memories of the past and serves as a vessel of hope, peace, and new traditions for Sachiko and the surviving members of her family. Stelson's sensitive text and Akira Kusaka's evocative illustrations capture the devastation of war and offer readers of all ages a vision for a world full of peace. Kusaka, Akira (illustrator).…
