The narrative starts in 1938 and follows the children as they journey to foster families in England for the duration of the war, return to Prague afterward in an unsuccessful search for their parents, and eventually connect with Nicholas Winton, a British former stockbroker who was instrumental in bringing them to safety. Winton and the Czech Kindertransport ultimately rescued 669 children from Nazi persecution." -- Amazon.com. 650 0 $a Kindertransports (Rescue operations) $z Czech Republic $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Rescue $x Rescue $z Great Britain $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $z Prague $z Prague $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Jewish children $z Czech Republic $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Jewish refugees $z Great Britain $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Jewish children $z Great Britain $v Juvenile literature. 655 7 $a Creative nonfiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Informational works. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Illustrated works. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Alko, Selina, $e illustrator. 941 $a 23 952 $l DAPG173 $d 20240724020257.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240716040818.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240710063931.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20240509011941.0 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417020354.0 952 $l WAPD715 $d 20240329010242.0 952 $l JSPB572 $d 20240323012834.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20240127012217.0 952 $l UGPF911 $d 20231207012837.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20231206014339.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20231206012510.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20231104011754.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20230906010318.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20230901010150.0 952 $l YUPD232 $d 20230824014440.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20230802012722.0 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20230718014346.0 952 $l RZPE145 $d 20230620010531.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20230502010835.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20230502010400.0 952 $l VTPD454 $d 20230422011146.0 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20230422010645.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20230404020335.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=07AFAE86D2B111ED872B743748ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
