¿Qué fue el Holocausto?

About ¿Qué fue el Holocausto?

Now available in Spanish.

A thoughtful and age-appropriate introduction to an unimaginable event–the Holocaust.

The Holocaust was a genocide on a scale never before seen, with as many as twelve million people killed in Nazi death camps–six million of them Jews. Gail Herman traces the rise of Hitler and the Nazis, whose rabid anti-Semitism led first to humiliating anti-Jewish laws, then to ghettos all over Eastern Europe, and ultimately to the Final Solution. She presents just enough information for an elementary-school audience in a readable, well-researched book that covers one of the most horrible events in history.

Includes a letter from the editor and series creator, Jane O’Connor.
