Hiding Edith by Kathy Kacer
The remarkable true story of a young girl named Edith and the French village of Moissac that helped her and many other children during the Holocaust. The town's mayor and citizens concealed the presence of hundreds of Jewish children who lived in a safe house, risking their own safety by hiding the children from the Nazis in plain sight, saving them from being captured and detained and most certainly saving their lives.
Kathy Kacer's writing has earned her numerous prizes, including the Silver Birch, Red Maple, Hackmatack, and the American Jewish Library Association Award. The Secret of Gabi's Dresser, the first book in Second Story Publications' Holocaust Memory Series, was published in 1999. She's written four more books in the series since then. Kacer, a former psychologist who worked with problematic teenagers, now writes for young readers about the Holocaust and speaks about it across the country. Kacer and her family live in Toronto.
