Summary: Powerful book
Review: This is a book for children, but adults would find it an excellent read. Ms. Ayer, a non-jew writes about the museum and you feel as if you are visiting there yourself. This book is an emotional journey for the reader, it includes pictures of children who were killed at the hands of the nazi's. It described the museums exhibits in great detail, and even though I personally dont think I can emotionally handle it, the book would be a great read before actually visiting the museum. I have never really embraced my Jewish roots, but with the help of this book and other holocaust readings in recent days, I am glad to say that I am now able to see myself as a Jew. If you are on the fence about your Judaism, read this book, it will draw you toward Judaism. For all those anti-semites who say the holocaust never happened, I wish you were right. To think that there is such horrible cruelty in this world and hatred makes me terribly sad. May peace prevail
