Hidden On The Mountain

Stories Of Children Sheltered From The Nazis In Le Chambon

BY DEBORAH DURLAND DESAIX, KAREN GRAY RUELLE
Amazing book for 9 year olds and up. Looks at the famous French Village, Le Chambon, that sheltered and helped so many Jewish refugees in WW2. Told with diary extracts and black and white photos, maps and interviews of those helped and helping - almost all children- makes for a very moving and inspiring book that brings home the horrors of war and the holocaust in a way that shows a few brave ordinary people standing up for their what was right could make a difference. A large hardback tome, and cover seems prone to curl but a great book for school, Meeting Library or home.

Let My People Go

African Americans 1804-1860 (the Young Oxford History Of African Americans, Vol 4)

BY DEBORAH GRAY WHITE
Explores what slavery was like for men, women, and children in white homes and plantations, but also shows how slaves created communities, how they fought back, and how they contributed to the system's decline. Even in rare "free" communities, the central goal of free African Americans, was to fight for the complete abolition of slavery. This sense of brotherhood, of community, speeded slavery's demise and still guides African American history today. Grade 5 & up
