Run and Hide by Don Brown

A gripping nonfiction graphic novel that follows the stories of Jewish children, separated from their parents, who escaped the horrors of the Holocaust.
★ "Brown applies his signature graphic-nonfiction approach to the rescue of Jewish young people from the HolocaustSequences about broader historical events set the scene before Brown turns focus to individual human stories, showing poignant moments as parents and children say what may be final goodbyes. Striking." — Horn Book (starred review) "A powerful account focusing on the fates of Jewish children during the Holocaust. Vivid, devastating, and impressively documented." — Kirkus Reviews "Brown (83 Days in Mariupol) chronicles standout stories of children who managed to escape harrowing circumstances during the Holocaust in this hard-hitting graphic novel. Though Brown does not shy away from the reality that more than a million children died, through these true and deftly told experiences, he offers hope amid the devastation."  — Publishers Weekly "Devastating. With illustrations that are at times tender and other times gruesome, Brown has found a way to convey the destruction of the Holocaust to younger readers. Add this graphic novel to your list of resources for teaching and learning about the Holocaust." — School Library Journal "This indelible graphic perspective grimly etches a crucial acknowledgment of the Holocaust’s harrowing toll on humanity’s youngest and most vulnerable." — Booklist "While the narrative boxes throughout convey pertinent information, dialogue bubbles and slightly skewed, unsettling art layer in elements of emotional urgency and intimate heartbreak. The unfortunate parallels to the kidnappings in Ukraine and the family separations at the U.S. southern border offer timely sparks for discussion." — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
