Case #14 informational


Surviving Hitler: A Boy in the Nazi Death Camps

ISBN: 9780060007676
Publication Date: 09/17/2002

This book follows the story of a 12-year-old young boy named
Jack Mandelbaum who was in a Nazi Concentration camp. It 
follows his journey from being separated from his family to a 
never-ending nightmare and no food. Jack survives and tells his story.  

Even though this is a very touchy subject for some people 
because of religion it really goes through the exact experiences 
kid goes through while being in a concentration camp. I took a 
holocaust class in high school and I feel like if we read books like 
this it would’ve made the clothes so much more interesting. I really 
like this book. 

I would give this a 5 out of 5.

  1. I see it won a Seibert medal for informational text. I use this award as a test for high-quality. Everything I have read that has won the Seibert I have personally enjoyed reading. I will have to add this book to my reading list. Thank you for the recommendation.
