"From the bustling city of Paris to the quaint, countryside village of Champlost, France, Where Courage Lives follows ten-year-old Muguette Szpajzer and her family as they sought refuge from the war. Written in vignettes with child-like charm and innocence, Muguette's memoir provides rich insight into rural life during wartime upheaval, honouring both her indomitable mother and the courage of the people of Champlost."--Résumé de l'éditeur.
Six Lost Years
"How much longer could we last?" sixteen-year-old Amek Adler laments, after arriving at yet one more concentration camp in the spring of 1945.

When Amek is finally liberated, he is determined to embrace all the opportunities that freedom offers.

Alone in the Storm
"In 1944, twenty-year-old Leslie Vertes escapes from a forced labour detail in Budapest and miraculously survives by assuming a false identity. About to taste freedom as the end of the war nears, his liberation is short-lived when he is caught by the new Soviet regime and sent for two years of back-breaking labour and captivity. Rebuilding his life and finding love, Leslie's security is once again threatened during the 1956 Hungarian uprising. It is not until he flees to Canada that he finally finds true freedom"--back cover.
The Hidden Package
A package of letters, drawings and photographs that young "Clary" and her little sister, Ollie, sent to their parents during World War II triggers a flood of repressed memories: from April 1943 to May 1945, they had been hidden by the sister of one of their father's Resistance comrades.
