Description

Although we could never fully comprehend the horrors of the Holocaust, stories such as these open our eyes to the inhumane treatment many received at the hand of Hitler. This is the story of how Jack Mandelbaum, who was twelve when he was taken by the Nazis, survived Hitler. Based on historical fact and Jack's memories, you learn about the Holocaust as you follow his story; the invasion of his home, being torn from his mother and brother to work, moving around from death camp to death camp working, fighting to stay alive in diseased and starving conditions, and ultimately, his liberation. ~ Steph

Publisher's Description of Surviving Hitler: Boy in Nazi Death Camps

The life-changing story of a young boy’s struggle for survival in a Nazi-run concentration camp.

Narrated in the voice of Holocaust survivor Jack Mandelbaum, this harrowing true story includes black-and-white photos from the archives of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum.

When twelve-year-old Jack Mandelbaum is separated from his family and shipped off to the Blechhammer concentration camp, his life becomes a never-ending nightmare. With minimal food to eat and harsh living conditions threatening his health, Jack manages to survive by thinking of his family.

In this Robert F. Silbert Honor book, readers will glimpse the dark reality of life during the Holocaust, and how one boy made it out alive.

The third volume in Diana Waring's history course begins with the Napoleonic era and continues through the early years of the Cold War (1800 - 1950s). Discover how God works through the lives of specific people, through events the world over, and through His Church - even in our tumultuous modern time.
