Gideon
Description
Gideon has to survive. He must struggle to stay alive, no matter the cost. And the cost is brutal and terrible for a Jewish boy in Poland's Warsaw Ghetto during World War II, and then in the concentration camp of Treblinka. He joins a gang of thieves to smuggle food and supplies past the Nazi guards into the ghetto. Not for a moment dare he stop looking over his shoulder, because it is instant death or deportation for a Jew to be caught outside the ghetto walls. He must bury his religion, his identity, his entire sense of self. To survive, he cannot think—he can only act. This is the story of Gideon's fight for freedom and for the strength to remember what no one must ever forget.
