This is the true story of Nechama Bawnik Tec, whose family found refuge with Polish Christians during the Holocaust. It is a dramatic tale of how an eleven-year-old child learned to "pass" in the forbidding Christian world, a quietly moving coming-of-age story, and a unique celebration of the best human qualities that surface under the worst conditions. - Back cover.
