The literature about the Holocaust is vast and includes the stories of survivors. While most such memoirs have dealt with experiences in concentration camps, those in this collection are by survivors--children who overcame the Nazi persecution while they were very young. The stories, collected in this book, bubbled up spontaneously, without an interviewer's guidance; hence they represent the most permanent memories of their authors' childhood experiences.
