Even though there was anti-Semitism in Poland, as there was anti-Semitism nearly everywhere in Europe, Alicia with her parents and four brothers led relatively peaceful lives. This all changed with Germany's invasion of Poland.. the infamous blitzkrieg of September 1, 1939 - Alicia was only 9 years old at the time. Alicia tells her amazing and powerful tale of holocaust survival from the eyes of a young girl with the wisdom of an adult. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
