Summary
The Gold family lived an idyllic life in pre-war Poland, but that life was shattered in 1939 when Germany invaded Poland and Jewish people were forced into the streets, their homes, schools, and businesses burned. Eventually, the Golds hid in… a cramped, secret enclosure for twenty-six months. Appalling conditions, starvation, fear of imminent betrayal and capture makes this a heart-stopping testament to the human spirit. For junior high readers. Winner of the 2017 Red Maple Non-Fiction Honour Book Award. 2015.
