A Lucky Child

In A Lucky Child, Thomas Buergenthal shares his incredible story of surviving the Holocaust as a young boy, including time in Auschwitz, where he was separated from his parents and left to survive alone. Through a mix of luck and determination, he made it through and was eventually reunited with his mother before starting a new life in the U.S. His simply told but powerful memoir highlights both the horrors he faced and his lifelong dedication to justice and human rights.
