The Holocaust was a genocide on a scale never before seen, with as many as twelve million people killed in Nazi death camps--six million of them Jews. Gail Herman traces the rise of Hitler and the Nazis, whose rabid anti-Semitism led first to humiliating anti-Jewish laws, then to ghettos all over Eastern Europe, and ultimately to the Final Solution. She presents just enough information for an elementary-school audience in a readable, well-researched book that covers one of the most horrible events in history. Includes a letter from the editor and series creator, Jane O'Connor" 650 0 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $x Juvenile literature. 700 7 $a Hoare, Jerry, $e illustrator. 941 $a 1 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417015644.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F5EFBD9C017B11ECA67BC50527ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
