Description
""Not even the scariest of fairy tales could have prepared me for the monsters I would confront while just a boy of ten ... or for the hero, disguised as a monster himself, who would save my life." Leon Leyson loved playing on the Krakow streetcars with his friends and tagging along after his older brothers ... Then, suddenly, German soldiers were: In his country. In his city. In his home. Seemingly overnight, the life he knew vanished. The Third Reich wanted him, and every other Jew, dead. The darkest of times can unleash the worst in human nature--and also the best. Leon Leyson lived through those times. This is his story."--Page 4 of cover.
Description
