Terezin

Terezin: Voices from the HolocaustTerezin: Voices from the Holocaust by Ruth Thomson

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


This is a perfect book for use with the 7th grade Common Core unit "Courage in Life and Literature."  This well-researched and carefully presented book illustrates the story of the Holocaust from the voices of those who experienced it.  The book contains secret drawings, diary entries, excerpts from memoirs, etc., all giving a first-hand look at the atrocities experienced by Jews in WWII.  Great to pair some of the excerpts with the Diary of Anne Frank.
