The Strange Ways of Providence In My Life (Heroic Children of World War II)

A young girl’s survival story against all odds in the face of pure evil. Krystyna’s childhood was full of happy moments, friends, both Polish and Ukrainian, and a loving family. But her happy childhood did not last long; World War II changed it forever. Krystyna’s family, together with the Jewish community of her small village, was forced to live in the Kolomyja ghetto, where people died of hunger and physical exhaustion. But the worst was yet to come… Her parents and two older sisters were brutally murdered, and young Krystyna was left all by herself. With no one to look after her, she had to survive on her own. She faced unimaginable hunger, thirst and fear. Yet, against all odds, she managed to survive. The book contains a unique collection of more than 100 photos, taken by Krystyna’s father, a professional photographer, who sent them to his family in Israel before the war. Krystyna’s powerful memoir will leave you breathless and heartbroken, and at the same full of inspiration and hope.
