A personal, powerful and resonant account of the Holocaust by one of this country's best-loved childrenâEUR(TM)s authors. By turns charming, shocking and heart-breaking, this is the true story of Michael RosenâEUR(TM)s search for his relatives who âEURwent missingâEUR? during the Second World War âEUR" told through prose, poetry, maps and pictures. When Michael was growing up, stories often hung in the air about his great-uncles: one was a clock-mender and the other a dentist. They were there before the war, his dad would say, and werenâEUR(TM)t after. Over many years, Michael tried to find out exactly what happened: he interviewed family members, scoured the internet, pored over books and traveled to America and France. The story he uncovered was one of terrible persecution âEUR" and it has inspired his poetry for years since. Here, poems old and new are balanced against an immensely readable narrative; both an extraordinary account and a powerful tool for talking to children about the Holocaust.
