Heartwrenching graphic novel memoir about Holocaust survivor Estelle Nadel (Enia Feld as a child in war occupied Poland). My 10 year old daughter and I read this together, and we were both saddened and horrified by the atrocities of the Holocaust, but also so appreciative that this book exists. Young readers need to know the history of antisemitism and the Holocaust, and sadly Estelle's family suffered greatly. Beautiful storytelling and illustrations make this a powerful and memorable read. Recommended for ages 10+ and be mindful of content warnings.
Graphic: Death, Hate crime, Antisemitism, Death of parent, and War
