All these people had to be hidden, fed, and often transported to other locations.The Nazis could not win the war so they decided to starve the citizens of Holland, by doing so, root out the Jews hiding there. The world did not find out that Jews were being killed in the concentration camps until two years into the war and after more than two million Jews had been killed.The author's parents were hiding an average of 20 Jews under the floor of their home in the city of the Hague. At the same time the author's father distributed food stamps and Fake IDs to the Jews in the hiding places all over the country at great risk of being shot. The author, then a 4 year-old boy, was riding with his father and acted as a decoy for the Nazis and was packed with the counterfeit papers, IDs, and food stamps. -- $c Amazon.com 650 0 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $x Moral and ethical aspects. 650 0 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $x Historiography. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $v Personal narratives, Dutch. 650 0 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in literature. 941 $a 4 952 $l OZAX845 $d 20240525040241.0 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305014957.0 952 $l WAPD715 $d 20210924015313.0 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20190122012914.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2B30F424CEAF11E898C63D7397128E48 994 $a C0 $b IW3Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
