Holocaust Remembrance Day

I may have already mentioned the book I finished recently, but if not ... I highly recommend SARAH'S KEY, a story of World War II, set in Paris during the German occupation.

Especially today, on Holocaust Remembrance Day, I think it is important for this story to be told.

Here is the best link I have found about the book itself, and about the topic it addresses:

And here is a link that talks directly about HOLOCAUST REMEMBRANCE DAY - why and how it was established, and how it is observed around the world:

Last but definitely not least, here is a link to a very touching news article about children (now adults) who survived the Holocaust:

Please take the time today to REMEMBER.
