Questions I Am Asked about the Holocaust: A Young Reader's Edition

By Hdi Fried and Hédi Fried

A young readers edition of the bestselling book from Auschwitz survivor H?di Fried that answers questions about the Holocaust with sensitivity and candor.

"Something like what Anne Frank might have written had she survived... Timeless lessons taught with simple eloquence." Kirkus Reviews

H?di Fried was nineteen when the Nazis arrested her family and transported them to Auschwitz, where her parents were murdered and she and her sister were forced into hard labor. Now ninety-nine, she has devoted her life to educating young people about the Holocaust and answering their questions. This new edition of her bestselling book is perfect for readers aged 10-17. This is a deeply human book for people of all ages that urges us never to forget and never to repeat.

The perfect conversation starter for educators to teach young people about the reality of the Holocaust from lived experiece. Wonderful companion piece to Art Speigelman's Maus. In the wake of recent reports that a shocking proportion of young people in the US know little to nothing about the Holocaust, alongside a concerning new wave of antisemitism in the US and Europe, this deeply personal first-hand account is especially timely.
