Publisher Description:
"A poignant overview of life inside the ghetto." -- School Library Journal (starred review)

Between 1941 and 1945, the small town of Terez n, Czechoslovakia, was a transit camp for thousands of Jewish people. It was a Nazi "show" camp, where inmates were forced to use their artistic talents to fool the world about the truth of gas chambers and horrific living conditions for imprisoned Jews. Here is their story, told through the firsthand accounts and artwork of those who were there.
Back matter includes a time line, a glossary, sources, and an index.
