The astonishing true story of a girl who survived the Holocaust thanks to Oskar Schindler, of Schindler's List fame. Rena Finder was only eleven when the Nazis forced her and her family -- along with all the other Jewish families -- into the ghetto in Krakow, Poland. Rena worked as a slave laborer with scarcely any food and watched as friends and family were sent away. Then Rena and her mother ended up working for Oskar Schindler, a German businessman who employed Jewish prisoners in his factory and kept them fed and healthy. But Rena's nightmares were not over. She and her mother were deported to the concentration camp Auschwitz. With great cunning, it was Schindler who set out to help them escape. Here in her own words is Rena's gripping story of survival, perseverance, tragedy, and hope. Including pictures from Rena's personal collection and from the time period, this unforgettable memoir introduces young readers to an astounding and necessary piece of history.

An amazing story of Rena Finder who survived the holocaust as a young girl
The story is very brief chapters about each step in her life as she moved a couple of concentration camps and was helped by Oscar Schindler in surviving her story. A film of Schindler's List was a DVD commemorating the 25th Anniversary of the series, and that conveys the story of the people saved. The anti-semitism is conveyed there and a help is needed today.
