  • Escape or Die : True Stories of Young People Who Survived the Holocaust

    Ina R. Friedman

    Paperback (J. B. Lippincott, Sept. 15, 1991)
    In this extraordinary collection of true stories, some new to this edition, 12 Jewish men and women--all under the age of 20 at the time--recount their incredible tales of surviving the Holocaust. Covering the years 1933 to 1948 and encompassing ten countries and as many destinations, these stories of escape are more than dramatic adventure tales and are particularly moving for young people. Filled with episodes of luck, courage, endurance, and ingenuity, each first-person narrative is an authentic and moving testimony to the human struggle for life against all odds and all costs.

  • Escaping into the Night

    D. Dina Friedman

    Paperback (Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers, Sept. 8, 2009)
    Halina Rudowski is on the run. When the Polish ghetto where she lives is evacuated, she narrowly escapes, but her mother is not as lucky. Along with her friend Batya, Halina makes her way to a secret encampment in the woods where Jews survive by living underground. As the group struggles for food, handles infighting, and attempts to protect themselves from the advancing Germans, Halina must face the reality of life without her mother. Based on historical events, this gripping tale sheds light on a little-known aspect of the Holocaust: the underground forest encampments that saved several thousand Jews from the Nazis. In telling the story of one girl's survival, Escaping into the Night marks the arrival of a remarkable new voice in fiction.
