About This Item
Hebrew Congregation Stamp inside front wrap, Pocket intact FLEP, else content appears as unread and unblemished with very good wraps displaying minimal surface/edge wear, as shown, with Taped ID at Heel of spine.
This is a heart-breaking and yet sweet book of children's poems, diary entries and artwork from Terezin, a Czech concentration during WWII. These children dream of home, the fleeting presence of butterflies and birds, ponder the loss of friends, and imagine a possible escape from the horror of their situation.
Almost all these artists died at Terezin or were later shipped to Auschwitz where they perished. A very few children survived: only .67% (100 out of 15,000). I love the following poem, most likely written by a child who only lived a few more years at most. Shipping/Handling/Insurance/Tracking Included within the continental U.S. (Free Shipping).
