Always Remember Me: How One Family Survived World War II | Marisabina Russo

1 post | 1 read

Rachel's Oma (her grandmother) has two picture albums. In one the photographs show only happy times -- from after World War II, when she and her daughters had come to America. But the other album includes much sadder times from before -- when their life in Germany was destroyed by the Nazis' rise to power. For as long as Rachel can remember, Oma has closed the other album when she's gotten to the sad part. But today Oma will share it all. Today Rachel will hear about what her grandmother, her mother, and her aunts endured. And she'll see how the power of this Jewish family's love for one another gave them the strength to survive. Marisabina Russo illuminates a difficult subject for young readers with great sensitivity. Based on the author's own family history, Always Remember Me is a heartbreaking -- and inspiring -- book sure to touch anyone who reads it.

Always Remember Me: How One Family Survived World War II | Marisabina Russo

This NF book would be great read as a RA. I enjoyed reading this picture book because it was told by a real life‘s persons perspective and what they had to go through at the time. I would mostly read this book prior to teaching about World War II and the Holocaust so that the students can get a feel for what happened throughout then. It is a very kid friendly book and is not too graphic. This book is written and illustrated by Marisabina Russo.
