As a young Jewish boy in Poland during the Second World War, Mark Spigelman narrowly escaped capture by the Nazis by posing as a little German girl and hiding alone in a neighbour’s attic. As the danger grew, Mark and his parents found refuge in a garbage dump and then a farmhouse next door to a notorious concentration camp.

Many decades on, it is finally time for Mark to share his remarkable story with his beloved grandaughters.

This beautiful book was written and illustrated by Mark’s wife, Rachel Spigelman.
