Notable Selling Points:The novel is based on the true story of Nahum Halpern, Edeet Ravel' s fifth-grade teacher who was exiled to Siberia as a boy, managed to escape after the war, and eventually settled in Montreal. The novel features black-and-white part-opener illustrations by Montreal artist Pam Comeau. Backmatter includes an author' s note, map and archival photographs, which trace the historical roots of the story. This is not only a Holocaust novel, but the all-too-familiar story of a child of war torn from the country and home he knows and loves amid the swirling confusion of political upheaval, violence and personal loss. Curriculum connections include rules and responsibilities, storytelling, citizenship and heritage, world history, social economic and political structures, forms of government, political activism, exploring citizenship, propaganda.
