Hidden from the Sun

About the Book

Jenny Kalsner tells her story with the voice of a young child coupled with the reflections of an adult. Her memoire is clearly distinct from that of Ann Frank, in that she was only six when entering hiding. Jenny's limitations in hiding from the Nazis were greater than Anne's, but they helped her survive. This special story, told in powerful language, explores the stages of renewed self confidence and maturation that led Jenny to a life of fulfillment and satisfaction. Her early experiences are retold with artistic sensitivity and wisdom.

"Poetically written, with emotion on every page, the reader is taken from laughter to tears . . . a remarkable book—it should be required reading." Ellen Belitsky, author of "Perchance to Feast"
