Despite the hunger, the cold and the danger, a few brave souls in a Nazi camp are determined to gather nine spoons to make a menorah for Chanukah. Years later, one of the women who lived it tells the touching story to her grandchildren. The sensitive watercolor illustrations make this an ideal book for a child's first introduction to the Holocaust. Based on actual events, this powerful tale of faith and self sacrifice is truly unforgettable.
