摘要
摘要
A young Jewish boy recalls life in Hitler's Germany. Although Daniel is a fictitious character, his story was inspired by the real experiences of many of the more than one million children who died in the Holocaust.
摘要
Daniel barely remembers leading a normal life before the Nazis came to power in 1933. He can still picture once being happy and safe, but memories of those days are fading as he and his family face the dangers threatening Jews in Hitler's Germany in the late 1930's. No longer able to practice their religion, vote, own property, or even work, Daniel's family is forced from their home in Frankfurt and sent on a long and dangerous journey, first to the Lodz ghetto in Poland, and then to Auschwitz -, the Nazi death camp. Though many around him lose hope in the face of such terror, Daniel, supported by his courageous family, struggles for survival. He finds hope, life and even love in the midst of despair.

Gr 4-8-- Daniel, 14 in 1941, describes first his family's sense of belonging in Germany and their refusal to flee their country despite the initial instances of anti-Semitism they experience. By the time the family is ready to acknowledge the seriousness of their situation, no country is willing to accept them. They are first deported from Frankfurt to the Lodz ghetto in Poland; from Lodz they are sent to Auschwitz, and finally, Daniel and his father are marched to Buchenwald. They are the only two members of the family who survive, and are liberated by the Americans. Daniel tells his story through the ``pictures'' he has; at first real photographs, and then the images in his head. He is a courageous, sensitive, heroic individual who personalizes the events of the Holocaust. His voice rings true; he is portrayed as an extraordinary youth, but these were times that demanded an exceptional response to increase the likelihood of survival. --Susan Kaminow, Arlington County Public Library, VA (c) Copyright 2010.

A powerful evocation of one boy's fight to survive complements the exhibit that tells his story in the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C. The journey from his secure life in Frankfurt to the horrors of the Lodz ghetto, Auschwitz, and Buchenwald is told in a series of vivid verbal pictures that capture the times and the places.

Kirkus评论
After witnessing the rising tide of anti-Semitism in Nazi Germany, Daniel is suddenly transported, at age 14, from his comfortable life in Frankfurt to a Polish ghetto, then to Auschwitz and Buchenwald--losing most of his family along the way, seeing Nazi brutality of both the casual and the calculated kind, and recording atrocities with a smuggled camera (``What has happened to me?...Who am I? Where am I going?''). Matas, explicating an exhibit of photos and other materials at the new United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, creates a convincing composite youth and experience--fictional but carefully based on survivors' accounts. It's a savage story with no attempt to soften the culpability of the German people; Daniel's profound anger is easier to understand than is his father's compassion or his sister's plea to ``chose love. Always choose love.'' Daniel survives to be reunited, after the war, with his wife-to-be, but his dying friend's last word echoes beyond the happy ending: ``Remember...'' An unusual undertaking, effectively carried out. Chronology; glossary. (Fiction. 11-14)
《书目》(Booklist)书评
Gr. 6-9. In this book created as a companion piece to "Daniel's Story: Remember the Children," an exhibit at the new U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, Matas' fictional hero becomes an archetypal figure symbolizing the millions of young people who suffered and died under Adolph Hitler's regime. As Daniel views a collection of photographs representing his life, he remembers his happy childhood in Frankfurt before the rise of anti-Semitism; his family's deportation to the Lodz ghetto; the horrors of his imprisonment at Auschwitz, Bergen-Belsen, and Buchenwald; and his eventual liberation in 1945. Matas' technique--flashbacks based on pictures from the exhibit that are described but never shown--is interesting but not entirely successful. Though Daniel emerges as a convincing narrator, and readers will be able to visualize the photos, the narrative vehicle distances readers from the intensity of the topic, and only rarely will they be able to lose themselves in the story. Despite this flaw, the story is an important one that will appeal to young readers and be useful as part of Holocaust teaching units. ~--Kay Weisman

Gr 4-8-The experiences of Jews during the Holocaust is told through the eyes of Daniel, a Jewish teenager, in this novel (Scholastic, 1993) by Carol Matas. Daniel tells the tragic story through a series of reminiscences brought about by looking at photos of his family and friends taken before the war and later those he took during his time in the concentration camps. It is the harrowing story of the struggle, persecution, and wholesale slaughter of Jews during World War II. Daniel and his family were deported from Frankfurt to a Polish ghetto, then to Auschwitz, and finally, the boy and his father were taken to Buchenwald where they were eventually released by the Americans. This is also the compelling story of one boy's survival, both in body and spirit, against great odds, and his finding love amidst such overwhelming hatred. Narrator Daniel Carpenter-Gold's superlative performance brings the horror of the Holocaust to life. His youthful voice is perfect for this story told by Daniel. A must-have for students studying the Holocaust.-Kathy Miller, Baldwin Junior High School, KS (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
