Wonderful Teaching Tool to discuss the Holocaust
14 Sep 2000
Format:Paperback
Each year I do a thematic unit on the Holocaust and this is one of the picture books that I use with my sixth grade students. They enjoy the story and the pictures portray the writer's feelings were very.

Holocaust picture book
6 April 2000
Format:Hardcover
An elderly lady retells events from her childhood. She describes her confusion and fear when her best friend has to wear a yellow star, her sadness when her friend mysteriously disappears one night and her enduring hope of finding her again. Great introduction for learning about the Jews under Nazi Germany. Reading level is third grade but good as a read aloud to younger children. Very moving.

Good introduction to the Holocaust for young children
3 Aug 2008
Format:Paperback
I can't think of a time in my life when I *didn't* know about the Holocaust.
There must have been such a time, nobody takes their three year old kid and one day decides to tell them of horrific things, but I can't recall it.
My nieces are 5 and 2.5, and the older one is right about the time when she should be learning about serious subjects.
This is, I think, a good introduction to what is a very serious subject indeed.
The reality of the Holocaust isn't diluted, but it's told at a level that's appropriate for small children - losing a friend and lifelong regret, and you know she didn't survive, but that's not spelled out.
Whenever you decide it's appropriate to start talking to your kids about this sort of subject, consider this book.
