HTML:"Much like The Boy In the Striped Pajamas or The Book Thief," this remarkable memoir from Leon Leyson, one of the youngest children to survive the Holocaust on Oskar Schindler's list, "brings to readers a story of bravery and the fight for a chance to live" (VOYA). This, the only memoir published by a former Schindler's list child, perfectly captures the innocence of a small boy who goes through the unthinkable. Leon Leyson (born Leib Lezjon) was only ten years old when the Nazis invaded Poland and his family was forced to relocate to the Krakow ghetto. With incredible luck, perseverance, and grit, Leyson was able to survive the sadism of the Nazis, including that of the demonic Amon Goeth, commandant of Plaszow, the concentration camp outside Krakow. Ultimately, it was the generosity and cunning of one man, Oskar Schindler, who saved Leon Leyson's life, and the lives of his mother, his father, and two of his four siblings, by adding their names to his list of workers in his factory??a list that became world renowned: Schindler's list.

I think this was a really good book, one of the best I've read so far in fact. I mean there has to be a reason as to why this book has more 5 star ratings than any other ratings. (And only one 2 star rating.) This book shows that not everyone shunned the Jews. Schindler gave Leon and his family a place to work and stay. Schindler protected his workers, not as if they were machines. But as if they were something more, he called the Jewish workers "experts, highly trained, and irreplaceable," even when some weren't experts or were really just bad at the job. Not to mention that when the women were sent to Auschwitz he saved them, and whenever someone was threatened with death or punishment Schindler saved them. ( Immediately too, not a moment's hesitation.) I don't think anyone who cared about the Jews were able to take Jews back from Auschwitz, yet somehow Schindler accomplished this amazing feat. ( )
