I read this book about 15 years ago after my first trip to Poland. I‘m reading it again because I SO admire Janusz Korczak and teach my students about him. He was an extraordinary person and I highly recommend this book. ❤️ He ran an orphanage in the Warsaw Ghetto, is a hero in Holocaust education and so much more!
