"This compelling story makes you feel like you are right there, running with every survival instinct to escape the Holocaust."
                                                                                                                                                                                                      - Former US Senator, Barbara Boxer.
"A gripping retelling of the numbing hunger, the blind drive for being, and the overwhelming anguish of suffering that puts one alongside the hero [Henry]. Yet somehow his humanity, his Jewish spark of decency, lifts him above all horror to give meaning to the words, L'Chaim - to Life!”

​                                           - Rabbi Ben Tzion Welton, Executive Director,
                                                                            Vaad of Northern California. ​
 "I’m so moved I am in tears. And it was so beautifully written.”
                                                                                                                         - Valli Benesch, Board Member, UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital, Oakland, California.
