Miriam Winter escaped being sent to a concentration camp by hiding with different families in the Polish countryside. Unlike Anne Frank, who hid silently in an attic, Miriam hid in plain site, taking care of cows and attending Catholic church services alongside her host families.
This book does not speak much of the larger picture of WWII or Jewish oppression, but instead of the author's personal experiences. Much of the book focuses on her life after Poland was liberated, but before she felt free to reveal her true heritage.
