128 pp. | Pelican | May, 2009 | Trade ISBN 978-1-58980-647-4 $12.95
(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Emile Henriquez. While on a class trip, Toby and her friend Donna visit Yad Vashem, Jerusalem's Holocaust History Museum. There they learn about the "Righteous Among the Nations": gentiles who rescued Jews during the Holocaust. Although the writing is bland and the story frame artificial, the true histories of these brave people, shown in black-and-white sketches, will hold readers' attention. Bib., glos.
