Description

A Little Girl in Auschwitz is a heart-wrenching true story of survival and resilience. In 1944, Lidia, just three years old, was sent to the notorious Auschwitz-Birkenau camp with her mother, who risked her life to visit Lidia. The little girl was subjected to inhumane experiments by Dr Josef Mengele, but her mother's love and strength kept her going. After the camp was liberated, Lidia was adopted by a Polish woman, but she later discovered that her birth parents were still alive in the USSR.

With a foreword by His Holiness Pope Francis, Lidia's story has touched hearts around the world. She has made it her mission to bear witness to the Holocaust, refusing to let hatred consume her. Instead, she advocates for love and redemption, saying "Hate only brings more hate. Love, on the other hand, has the power to redeem."

This powerful and ultimately hopeful account is a testament to Lidia's strength and courage. Her story is a reminder of the devastating impact of the Holocaust and the importance of preserving the truth. A Little Girl in Auschwitz is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the history of the Holocaust and the human spirit.
