Jacob's Rescue by Malka Drucker & Michael Halperin

Jacob's Rescue is not another typical WWII hiding of Jews from Nazis. This is Jacob's story how he was saved by a Polish family until the Russians came into Poland. Alex and his family took Jacob in and through out the years eventually took in Jacob's brothers. Alex's family kept them safe until then end of the war. Jacob and David finally reunited with their Dad in Palestine.
This book was published in 1993 but I recently found it as I was taking inventory at school. Its a good read for a student looking to read less then 150 pages and the story line moves quickly probably because the Germans/Nazis were always looking to hunt down Jews during this time period.  its sad that this is part of our world history.

This is very simialr in history to Between Shades of Gray
