Why me? — How to survive Auschwitz I. Nuengamme and Watenstedt

Description

“Why Me?”, an edited, easy-to-read youth version of Dad’s autobiography “Work gives freedom”. An excellent easy-to-read aid (teaching aid) in teaching about Anti-Semitism/Auschwitz/Holocaust and about concentration camps. The book has come about after the Swedish National Agency for Education’s investment with Läslyftet for teaching pedagogues. The reading lift means making texts in various teaching materials, regardless of subject, more accessible to young people. The book is an excellent basis for discussion before trips to Holocaust memorials, or simply an easier read (both in terms of text volume and as a description of everyday life) about a subject that can be perceived as difficult to absorb given the cruelty described by many other authors.
