"Your inspiring meditation on the power of kindness and hope over cruelty and despair is gracefully written and affecting. You evoke both your subject matter and narrator effectively and sensitively. It addresses serious and disturbing material in a way that is honest and unflinching but not overly explicit.
"I could see this story potentially being used as a teaching tool in support of related historical or religious material (e.g., a high school course examining the Holocaust or a discussion about Passover)."-- Editorial Review
"The central metaphor neatly turns the yellow star, a badge of shame, into a symbol of light and determination." -- Kirkus Reviews
Aaron Seth is fascinated with history. He became inspired by his grandfather, who was in hiding during the Holocaust. Although, he barely knew him, this book is dedicated in his honor as an Israeli Soldier who completed 21 military jumps out of a C-47 combat airplane.
