Testimonial
History texts alone cannot provide students with an understanding of how the Jews of Europe were affected by the Shoah, nor can they make the unfathomable nature of the number six million resonate. . . . child survivors put a personal, individual face on this history as they share their experiences, taking the viewer on a journey . . .
