10 concentration camps. 10 different places where you are starved, tortured, and worked mercilessly. It’s something no one could imagine surviving. But it is what Yanek Gruener has to face. As a Jewish boy in 1930s Poland, Yanek is at the mercy of the Nazis who have taken over. Everything he has, and everyone he loves, have been snatched brutally from him. And then Yanek himself is taken prisoner … prisoner — his arm tattooed with the words PRISONER B-3087. He is forced from one nightmarish concentration camp to another, as World War II rages all around him. He encounters evil he could have never imagined, but also sees surprising glimpses of hope amid the horror. He just barely escapes death, only to confront it again seconds later. Can Yanek make it through the terror without losing his hope, his will — and, most of all, his sense of who he really is inside? Based on an astonishing true story.

This book confirms a lot of details of happenings during World War 2 in the concentration camps. It is haunting to read how human beings treat each other in times of conflict. Very thought provoking

Only read it if you are interested in what happened to the jewish communities during ww ll. Very sad journal.
I really enjoyed reading this book. It was very informative to hear from someone who actually survived the concentration camps in Germany. It was very haunting.
Aimed for middle schoolers to get an overall look at concentration camps for Jews.
Easy read.
