My Story

This is the story of a young girl of Jewish faith, living in Paris with her family when WW2 breaks out. Hearing of the approaching Germans, they pack in a hurry and take the next train out, leaving everything behind forever. They wander in the countryside for the next 9 Months, then they must leave France and go to whoever will want them, which at that time was the Dominican Republic. She was only 10 years old when her story began; but at 15, still living peacefully in the Dominican Republic, she felt a need to put it all down on paper. This is her account of her unforgettable experiences that changed her life.
