Over time, fewer and fewer children were left to care for the little tree, but those who remained kept lovingly sharing their water with it. When the war finally ended and the prisoners were rescued, the sapling had grown into a strong five-foot-tall maple. Nearly eight years later the tree's six hundred descendants around the world are thriving...including one planted at New York City's Museum of Jewish heritage. Students will continue to care for it for generations to come, and the world will remember the brave teacher and children who never gave up nurturing a brighter future."-- $c Front jacket flap. 610 20 $a Theresienstadt (Concentration camp) $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Jewish children in the Holocaust $z Czech Republic $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Trees $v Juvenile literature 650 0 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $z Czech Republic $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Picture books. 700 1 $a Rozentsveig, Alianna $e illustrator. 941 $a 5 952 $l HQPD845 $d 20240516015955.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20240308010212.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20240206011258.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20240206010615.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20240125012009.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=89C7534CBB4F11EE9799A7D243ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b UOKInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
