A picture book depicting the first-hand experiences of a Polish woman whose Jewish family endured suffering and upheaval during the Russian and Nazi intervention of World War II. The story starts with a very poor peasant childhood in a Shtetl, a Jewish village in the Polish countryside. There are pictures of Toby's family, of the daily household routines, ironing with a hot-coal iron, making potato soup, the neighbours, plucking geese - and of the sabbath, the day of rest. Then comes September 1939 and following the German invasion, the Russian occupation of Eastern Poland. The Russians make their presence felt by teaching communism at school and setting up youth brigades.

Available again for the first time in decades, this jewel of a memoir is the poignant story of a young Jewish girl growing up in a Polish farm village, from the peaceful early 1930s through the tragic war years, and finding safe harbor at last. Deeply movingElie Wiesel A tone poem evocative of a vanished worldChaim Potok In her own words and with her own beautiful paintings and drawings, artist Toby Knobel Fluek (19262011) lovingly unfurls a unique view of Jewish life. She introduces us to her village, to her family, to the people among whom they lived; she shows us how customs and holidays were observed; and, with both feeling and restraint, she illustrates how this long-enduring way of life was shattered by World War II. She depicts her family's experiences through Russian occupation and the devastation wreaked by the Nazisand, finally, her new beginning in America. New to this edition is a foreword by Rakhmiel Peltz, PhD, PhD, Founding Director of the Judaic Studies Program at Drexel University, which he led for twenty years.
